Ah. OK. That makes sense. Phew!

It is kind of annoying me though as they aren’t different sports but hey, it sounds better :d

QUALIFICATION UPDATE

 

 

Mark English did it!! He is on the plane to Tokyo after running 1:44.71 mins over 800m in Spain this evening! Phew! He gets the A standard just in the nick of time :d. But not only that, he broke the long-standing Irish record for the men's 800m which has stood since 1995. Congrats Mark :bowdown:

 

That means we now have secured 102 athlete quotas (55 men and 47 women) with representatives in 58 events, across 20 different sports.

QUALIFICATION UPDATE

 

 

It's been a busy day of updates in terms of Olympic qualification with World Athletics revealing the list of athletes qualified to the Olympics by ranking, the IGF releasing the list of qualified women for the Olympic golf tournament and with the announcement of the Irish men's road cycling team.

 

Starting with road cycling, Nicolas Roche, Dan Martin and Eddie Dunbar have been selected to represent the country in the men's road race with Roche going also in the men's individual time-trial. It will be Roche's 4th Olympic Games!

 

However, in terms of new quotas, Ireland has earned 11 more quotas in athletics after the world rankings list was finalised overnight.

Although this does not yet mean that Athletics Ireland or the Olympic Federation of Ireland will nominate all of those athletes, for the purposes of this tracker I am counting them as earned quotas at this moment in time. I will only count 10 additional quotas since Phil Healy will almost certainly take part in the mixed relay event. This brings the number of athletics qualifiers to 25 and puts athletics at the top of the table in terms of Irish qualifiers by sport for the Olympic Games.

 

The IGF also revealed the list of women qualified to the Olympics after the qualifying period came to an end. Leona Maguire and Stephanie Meadow (26th and 38th respectively in the Olympic qualifying list) have both earned a quota place and both look set to represent Ireland at the Games for a second time!

 

 

That means we now have secured 114 athlete quotas (59 men and 55 women) with representatives in 65 events, across 20 different sports.

* Ireland is awarded 4 quotas for the Mixed 4x400m Relay. It is almost certain that the relay squad will contain Phil Healy who is already qualified in the Women's 200m and 400m. Therefore, for the purposes of being as accurate as possible, I am only counting 3 new additional quotas to fill the relay squad.

Swim Ireland have nominated Ellen Walshe along with the rest of the FINA A time qualifiers so that’s great news. Just waiting on the OFI to complete the selection process now :)

Athletics Ireland have nominated Leon Reid too.  That needs to be confirmed too

 

Then we're just waiting on relay teams, the rugby team and the shooter to be named

 

Oh and any last minute miracle reallocations

I presume the  Medley Relay appeal has gone nowhere?

Haven’t a clue. Neither relay team mentioned in the swim Ireland press release

 

They haven’t mentioned the divers yet either

 

Presumably they’re reticent to announce anything now

    • (Quiet gaming, zero social pressure, no calls, no KYC… just peace.) As someone who’s definitely on the introverted side, I’ve always hated anything that feels intrusive — long registrations, support calls, verification uploads, or sites that spam you into interacting. So over the past year, I tested a bunch of crypto casinos specifically to see which ones are introvert-friendly: ✔ no forced KYC ✔ fast payouts (so no long back-and-forth with support) ✔ clean, quiet UI ✔ no pop-ups and no social pressure ✔ easy deposits ✔ minimal interaction needed Below is what actually worked for me. ⭐ My Top Crypto Casinos for Introverts (Real Testing Results) Casino Why It’s Introvert-Friendly Speed Link JackBit Quiet UI, no KYC, instant payouts 7 min 👉 Play at JackBit BetWhale Low-pressure bonuses, simple layout 14 min 👉 Play at BetWhale BitStarz Fast cashouts, no forced conversations 9 min 👉 Play at BitStarz ThunderPick Clean minimalist design 18 min 👉 Play on ThunderPick 7Bit Casino Extremely chill, no notifications 22 min 👉 Play at 7Bit 1. JackBit – The Most Comfortable Casino for Quiet Players If you’re introverted like me, JackBit is basically perfect. No popups, no aggressive promos, no forced messages — just a clean interface and silent, fast gameplay.

BetWhale – Best for Quiet Bonus Hunters BetWhale surprised me — their bonuses are generous without requiring chats, emails, or ID checks. Why it works for introverts: Wagering progress updates silently No pushy pop-ups The whole site feels “low-pressure” Support never contacts you unless you message first It’s a very low-interaction platform.   👉 Play at BetWhale (Smooth & Simple) 3. BitStarz – Fast Payouts Means Less Interaction BitStarz is great if you want to deposit, play, withdraw and leave — quick and efficient, no conversations needed. What I like: Withdrawals are some of the fastest online No random KYC prompts if you use crypto Very stable gameplay (no need to contact support) A calm, mature-feeling interface Perfect for players who like things to “just work.”   👉 Play at BitStarz (Quick & Quiet Gaming) 4. ThunderPick – Best for Introverts Who Like Betting Too ThunderPick has one of the smoothest, cleanest interfaces I’ve used. Everything is intuitive and visually quiet — no clutter, no noise. Introvert-friendly perks: Great for casual betting without chat rooms Mobile interface is extremely calm No forced community features You can switch between casino & sports without talking to anyone     👉 Play on ThunderPick (Minimalist Interface) 5. 7Bit – The Chillest, Quietest Crypto Casino 7Bit feels like a casino designed for people who want to be left alone. Why I recommend it: No aggressive marketing No forced KYC unless you use fiat Huge game library with silent browsing Simple cashier with no need for support interactions It’s a very relaxed environment.   👉 Play at 7Bit (Totally Low-Pressure) Final Thoughts — The Introvert’s Casino Shortlist If you want a quiet, private gaming experience without feeling watched, talked to, or pressured: 🏆 Best Overall for Introverts: JackBit 🏆 Best Quiet Bonus Experience: BetWhale 🏆 Fastest Stress-Free Payouts: BitStarz 🏆 Best Minimalist UI: ThunderPick 🏆 Most Chill Game Library: 7Bit
    • It's not a coincidence that a lot of the matches that are earlier in the day are in Atlanta and Houston and Dallas where they have roofs.  And most of the games in the outdoor stadiums are later in the day.
    • The best athletes will all be there anyway – it's easier to get a spot in the top 10-15. Only the great champions were ahead of Gismondi today.
    • They are not "oppressed enough" to be mention here.
    • And remember the Olympic Paradox - it is slightly easier to get a medal at the Olympics than at a World Cup because in the Olympics the numbers of racers from the powerful nations are capped at 4.  
    • Jimmy Mariano  basketball. 84 years old.   Member of the Philippine men’s basketball team at the 1972 Summer Olympics. Flag bearer for the Philippine delegation at those Games.    
    • Franchi had a similarly impressive performance at the 2023 World Championships on the same distance but later she completly missing. I hope that with Gismondi will be different, especially since she was already a great talent in her junior years. The problem in Italy is that for the past 15 years, aside from Pellegrino, there has been a miss of stability in other athletes: there are some booms of excellent form, but later they disappear. I also worry that funding for cross-country skiing will be cut after the Cortina Olympics.
    • The last day was a great success, for first. Secondly, even 20 medals are fewer than the 22 from 2023 and 34 from 2021
