hckošice 13,273 Posted December 10, 2023 #2 Share Posted December 10, 2023 Jakub Borguľa won yesterday the sprint in Pokljuka. It was his first competition as a junior. Great result and achievement.

Werloc 3,127 Posted December 14, 2023 #7 Share Posted December 14, 2023 And that's without Norway, Sweden, Finland, United States, China, Japan, that could've easily lifted the number up to 41 Biathlonfan and RobtheAggie 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Youth Olympic year. NFs need that exposure/funding Biathlonfan and RobtheAggie 2 “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

heywoodu 13,562 Posted December 15, 2023 #9 Share Posted December 15, 2023 15 hours ago, Biathlonfan said: That's crazy To be fair, quite a large number won't make it to the third or even second athlete For example the Brazilian girls are there, but since the guys start first, I am not sure they're even actually going to the venue today (like when Brazil started in the mixed relay in an IBU Cup some years ago, it was woman-woman-man-man, and the second of the two men wasn't even in the same country ) Biathlonfan 1 If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

NFs need that exposure/funding For some countries that's the same in non-YOG years. Brazil for example quite literally only starts for the IBU money and equipment (both in the Junior Cup and nowadays also in the IBU Cup), although of course officially it's for stuff like "improving talents" and whatnot. They don't ever train shooting outside of the few days during the season, they have broken rifles and they just use the free equipment for everything and nothing, but with YOG....nah, not much to do with that, and somehow I doubt it's different for the likes of Chile (who's girls needed WAY more than double the time of the sprint winners so far) or Macedonia Edited December 15, 2023 by heywoodu If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!
