We have 20 days until FIBA's WOQT Tournaments begin.

 

Please post YOUR predictions on which nations qualify and

which nations earn a trip to the glue factory.

 

Glue Factory                Qualified

 

Australia or Germany  Team USA FIBA's Women's 2022 World Champion   

Nigeria or Senegal       France                   

New Zealand

Canada or Hungary

 

Will Qualify

 

Brazil & Serbia

 

Belgium

 

China & Puerto Rico

 

Japan & Spain

 

Medal Contenders

 

Gold: Team USA - ANYTHING less than Gold is FAILURE!

 

Silver:        China - They are ranked number 2 in the world. It is time

                                to PROVE their world ranking is not a fluke.

 

Bronze: Belgium 6th, France 7th, Japan 9th, Serbia 10th, & Spain 4th.

 

The MOST at risk country is Australia. Their frontline is OLD.

 

Lauren Jackson Center Born: 11 May 1981 (age 43) Height: 195cm / 6'5"

Marianna Tolo: Center Born: 02 Jul 1989 (age 35) Height: 196cm / 6'5"
Cayla George: Forward Born: 01 May 1989 (age 35) Height: 193cm / 6'4"

Ezi Magbegor Forward Born 13 Aug 1999 (age 25) Height: 193cm / 6'4"
Bec Allen: Small Forward Born: 06 Nov 1992 (age 31) Height: 188cm / 6'2"
Sara Blicavs: Power Forward Born: 15 Feb 1993 (age 31) Height: 188cm / 6'2"

Alanna Smith: Forward Born: September 10, 1996 (Age: 27-131d)  6-4 (193cm)

                                                                               Average age is 32.42 years old

 

They have at best one decent "point guard" maybe and one sporadically ser-

viceable shooting guard.

 

Sami Whitcomb: Guard Born: 20 Jul 1988 (age 36) Height: 178cm / 5'10"

Tess Madgen: Guard Born: 12 Aug 1990 (age 34) Height: 180cm / 5'11"

These two guards have a combined age of 70.

 

Jade Melbourne: Guard Born: August 18, 2002 (Age: 21-154d)  5-11 (180cm)
Isobel Borlase: Guard Born: 12 Sep 2004 (age 19) Height: 180cm / 5'11"
Steph Reid: Point Guard Born 22 July 1996 (age 27) Height 5 ft 6 in (1.68 m)

These three guards have a combined age of 67.

 

Even IF Australia qualifies for the Olympics, their frontline is TOO old and they

do not have the point/shooting guards to compete against Belgium, Japan,

Serbia, Spain, or even France.

Spain SHOULD win this tournament. Spain and Japan are under the MOST pressure to

qualify for FIBA's 2024 Women's Olympic Basketball Tournament. Spain missed FIBA's

2021 Women's Olympic Basketball Tournament & FIBA's 2022 Women's Basketball World

Cup. They want REDEMPTION! Japan wants/needs to prove that their 2021 Women's

Olympic Basketball Silver Medal was not a fluke.

 

Olympic Basketball Tournament.

 

1. Can Team Canada qualify?

 

2. Will they place 2nd, 3rd, or 4th?

:CAN roster:

 

Natalia Achonwa PF

Kayla Alexander F

Laeticia Amihere F

Bridget Carleton G

Shay Colley G

Yvonne Ejim F

Nirra Fields G

Sami Hill G

Aislinn Konig G

Shaina Pellington G

Emily Potter F

Syla Swords F

 

No Kia Nurse, as she suffered an injury in training. :(
 

She’ll likely be back in time for the Olympics though (should Canada qualify)

 

Other notable absences include Aaliyah Edwards, and Cassandra Prosper (edit: Prosper suffered a lower leg injury recently, which explains why she’s out)

    • Team Size Prediction for Winter Olympic Games 2026 Milano Cortina   Let's do this for a country that is not actually that good in winter sports as well as our Olympic Committee Declining lots of places. In Beijing we had 7 quotas and used 2      (also I am a very optimistic person in relation to sport in general and always hope for the best. )    Ski Sports   Alpine Skiing  (2) - Emilija Djurović and Aleksa Tomović Cross Country Skiing  (2) - Anja Ilić (the olympic committee cancelled her participation just before Bejing) and Andrija Tošić Ski Jumping  (0) - Basically not existent in Serbia Nordic Combined  (0) - Basically not existent in Serbia Freestyle Skiing  (0) - Basically not existent in Serbia Snowboarding  (1) - Matija Milenković  Biathlon  (2) - We had two juniors at the YOG 2024, maybe they can get better, I will be optimistic  (Lamija Salihagić and/or Hanna Jelena Braun) Ski Mountaineering  (0) - I don't think it will be existing      Skating Sports   Speed Skating  (0) - Basically not existent in Serbia Short Track Speed Skating  (1) - Out first EYOF winter medal in a long time came from Luka Jašić Figure Skating  (0) - Maybe we will have a good junior come      Sleigh Sports   Luge  (0) - Basically not existent in Serbia Skeleton  (1) - We had two juniors at the YOG 2024, maybe they can get better, I will be optimistic Bobsleigh  (0) - Not existent anymore      Team Sports   Curling  (0) - Basically not existent in Serbia Ice Hockey  (0) - Qualifier for women's team cancelled, and mens team eliminated       Total  VERY Optimistic Prediction  -  (9) Total Pessimistic Prediction  - (3)   Total Realistic Prediction  -  (3)
    • North American rugby quotas ( and qualified automatically)    M: and W: and  
    • I remember Caroline Golubitsky. She competed with Vezzali for a while but not for long. Rita Konig, whom Vezzali defeated in the final of the Olympic Games in 2000, was more famous, as well as Sabine Bau and Anja Mueller. From what I remember, the Germans competed fiercely with us at some point, but they almost always lost.
    • Shemyakina won a bronze medal in 2014 Worlds and was one of our leader but leave the squad due to pregnancy (she has 2 daughters if I'm not mistaking, so she chose family instead of sport). And speaking of foil we have back in the day Sergiy Golubitskyi, who was Olympic silver medalist and won some medals in other competitions and coached his wife Caroline Golubitskyi - one of the German foil specialists. Even in women's foil we had medal in Women's foil at the European championship - it was Olha Leleiko, our current national coach. So no, we are pretty good fencing country, and depending on generations of our athletes some events are more "profitable" for us and some don't. 
    • Shemyakina that was a very strange story. She unexpectedly won the games but before and after she literally achieved nothing. After that success in 2012 she also completely disappeared. It's only in epee that such strange situations. That's why I've always preferred foil and sabre, because the top was more stable there, although that's changing now. The competition has grown a lot all over the world.
