9 swimmers officially selected. Looks like they've used the relay team to get Brendan Hyland into the butterfly event. Shane Ryan listed as a relay participant too. Only 2 relay only swimmers

Others including McSharry, Wiffen and Walshe can swim their 2nd event too

QUALIFICATION UPDATE

 

 

Swim Ireland today announced a team of 9 swimmers to represent Ireland at the Tokyo Olympic Games. Joining the 6 already selected swimmers will be Brendan Hyland, who received an OST invitation from FINA. Swim Ireland confirmed that this invitation proved crucial in ensuring that Ireland could field a men's 4x200m freestyle relay team because per rules a nation may only enter 2 relay-only swimmers in the event. It is for this reason that Swim Ireland approved Brendan Hyland's invite, contrary to the usual policy position of refusing such invitations.

The two relay-only swimmers have been named as Jack McMillan and Finn McGeever.

 

In addition, some of the OQT swimmers on the team have been approved to swim in a second event in which they had achieved the OST standard. Full details of the events the Irish team will participate in can be found below.

 

 

That means we now have secured 116 athlete quotas (61 men and 55 women) with representatives in 72 events, across 20 different sports.

O'Sullivan hasn't really developed in the senior ranks though. He wasn't close to qualify on his own merits. 

 

Now clearly I'm no expert but perhaps the internal qualification wouldn't allow it either

QUALIFICATION UPDATE

 

 

Athletics Ireland today announced their finalised team of 25 athletes and 2 alternates who will represent Ireland at the upcoming Tokyo Olympics. The selection confirmed Leon Reid's participation in the men's 200m which had been in doubt. It also settled the matter of the mixed relay team nominations with Phil Healy, Sophie Becker, Cillin Greene, Chris O'Donnell, Robert McDonnell and Cliodhna Manning named as members of the relay squad.

 

Meanwhile, Olympic veteran Derek Burnett has been officially nominated to represent Ireland in the men's trap shooting event in Tokyo. It will be the 51-year-old's fifth Olympic Games, having competed previously in 2000, 2004, 2008 and 2012. He equals the record of most Olympic Games appearances by an Irish athlete, currently held jointly by Olympic medalists Robert Heffernan (athletics) and David Wilkinson (sailing).

 

That means we now have secured 116 athlete quotas (62 men and 56 women) with representatives in 72 events, across 20 different sports.

Just replied in the other thread. They’ve said it’s a squad of 25 with 22 names as individuals  

 

So the relay team is Healy + 3 (and 2 alternates). Suspect they’ve left it like that deliberately…

Yes just saw your reply. Well on this thread we will stick to what the OFI are counting and I will bring the athletics quotas back to 25.

 

Meanwhile Nhat Nguyen has learned his group for the men's singles badminton. He is in Group F with number 10 seed :TPE Wang Tzu Wei and :SRI Niluka Karunaratne. Not a bad draw for him and hopefully he can get a victory under his belt.

    • 4-3  over  at the break, Norway with hammer.
    • whatever you heard is just speculation. no one knows at the moment, probably even the orange himself.   and Iranian athletes failed to get visa so many times before. even female athletes. there is no pattern, it's just too random.    and yes Iran has a system of compulsory military service for men, and there is 50% chance for anybody to be randomly drafted by IRGC affiliated organizations. that's the case for Taremi and few others in the current team.  
    • Would you believe the NCAA Indoor season has already started?      
    • Some changes that I've noticed:   3x3 Basketball: With the expanded 12 team field, one extra team per gender qualifies through world rankings, one extra team qualifies through the universality driven tournament and there's now an Olympic Qualifier series to award the final quotas.   Beach Volleyball: Continental qualifiers have have priority over the World championship and World Rankings quotas and there's now Olympic Qualifier Series quotas.   Canoe Sprint: World ranking system now in place and will be used instead of awarding world championship quotas. Road Cycling: 2 nations ranking quotas per gender moved to universality.   Track Cycling: Sprint and Keirin ranking list is now combined and will award 14 quotas per gender. Previously it was 7+7. Team pursuit down to 8 quotas from 10. 2 of the quotas have been moved to madison (one additional team) and 6 to the omnium.   Fencing: Can get a Continental quota of you finished in the top 24 of the rankings. It was previously top 16.    Hockey: 2 pro league quotas replace two qualification tournament quotas.   Judo: 5 less universality places and 4 more Continental places. For men, there's two more spots for Asia, one less for Oceania and 1 more for the Americas. For the women, there's one more spot for Europe, one less for Oceania and two more for Asia.   Modern Pentathlon: Less quotas awarded through world rankings as a result of quota cuts.   Open Water Swimming: Introduction of world ranking qualifier.   Sailing: In general, seems to be more quotas awarded at the last chance regatta and less quotas at the World Championships   Shooting: One less quota handed out at each World Championship and the return on World Cup qualifiers.   Swimming: Olympic qualification and consideration times renamed to A and B standard. B standard is now 1% slower than the A standard compared to 0.5% in 2024. Stroke 50s have their own direct qualification events and have minimum time standards instead of A and B standards. Qualification times have been nuked again. B standard selection process has also changed.   Volleyball: New revised format. Continental championships first, then world championships followed by world rankings. In 2024, it was 3 qualification tournaments and then world rankings. Only 3 countries per gender will qualify by world rankings now compared to 5 in 2024
    • For Italy, the match against Japan and likely the final match against Estonia will be a safe/relegation game, but I'm think that whether the match against Estonia will be decisive on anything, if we have 0 points after 4 matches. We're currently the worst team here – we have 0 points and are taking significantly fewer shots than our opponents in each match. Japan and Estonia are looking better for now and unfortunately, without significant improvement play starting tomorrow, we'll likely be relegated to the fourth division. With the absence of Russia and Belarus, this will be a shame, even for the weaker 2006/2007 age generation. Especially, since we are playing this tournament at home. For anyone could have competed with a good shape, except perhaps Hungary, who are currently the best team in the tournament.
    • They shouldn't promise additional spots to countries that qualify 3 athletes in each distance, because then taking those spots away isn't fair. For example, in Italy, Previtali won the 500m QO for country but he would likely have to stay at home because the staff probably would have chosen Casinelli for the relay (Casinelli won't be competing individually at all). I don't know what the situation is in Canada with the fifth-place skater? Will this person only compete in the relay, or will he also be a reserve there? 
    • That's too bad. Athletes who finish in the top 32 (or 36 for the 1590m) should be the priority over the 5th athlete from a relay country.   So Croatia loses their 2nd women's quota, Hong Kong loses their only women's quota and Poland loses their 3rd women's quota.   This means that Great Britain, Slovakia and Ukraine should fill up the rest of the 1500m field since they are the highest placed reserves that doesn't require an additional quota.    
    • Philip Rivers' possible return to NFL while being a semifinalist for the Hall of Fame certainly wasn't on my bingo card. But well. So far he's only on the practice squad
