Sorry, I am a slow reader :d No, lately I am not that present. 

 

Mrak means "dark" in Slovenian, as the part of the day, when daylight comes to an end. So something similar, dark. :d

Ah, cool in SVK it´s "súmrak" :d but the word mrak itself is for cloud.

 

Really interesting, how or languages are quite similar (especially using same words) but at the same time quite different (with the meanings of those words) :)

Our word for cloud is "oblak", like our goalkeeper Jan Oblak.

:woot:

 

Same here, it´s the second meaning of the word Oblak.

 

Oblak in SVK/CZE = Window, Cloud, cloud of smoke

2020Tokyo.png.5b0ae7e11858b8cd415a9f2123

 

:SLO OLYMPIC FOCUS :SLO 

 

I will try to go through all previous performances and to find out, what the future brings, if particular sport will have :SLO representatives in Tokio.

 

PART 1

Archery.png.46231719f1b04577666dc942b2bc

Archery

 

Slovenia participated on 5 occasions in archery. There were only men, who took this sport at the Olympics. First one was Bojan Postružnik, who competed in Montreal 1976, where he finished as 9th, which is still best performance ever by a Slovenian archer.

 

In 1992 Samo Medved was so close to qualify for knockout competition, as he came in 33rd position. Four years later in Atlanta Medved, Matevž Krumpestar and Peter Koprivnikar went on to finish as high as 5th in Team event, losing to later champions South Korea in quarterfinals. Medved was our best indvividual, finishing as 14th.

 

Later on Peter Koprivnikar competed also in Sydney 2000, but was defeated in first round (Round of 64). Last competitor took place in London 2012, Klemen Štrajhar failed to win in opening round.

 

As for the future, it is sad Compound is not an olympic discipline, in that case Toja Ellison would be hot medal favourite, since she is former World champion (2014) and this season gold medalist at European Games. 

On this day no athlete has met the standards, but there are 3 hopes, who are currently among top 100 in World Rankings. Gašper Štrajhar is closest to Tokio at current 37th place, Den Habjan Malavašič is 78th, while Ana Umer could become first Slovenian female representative in archery, so far she is at 94th place in World Rankings.

PART 2

 

ArtisticSwimming.png.6cac595a3a571801250

Artistic Swimming

 

This part will be one of the shortest possible. Slovenia never had an athlete at the Olympic Games. This sport is very new. Only in 1999, there was first live presentation on Faculty of Sports in Ljubljana for academic reasons, and it was not until 2009, when first club (Rusalka from Velenje) was established.

 

Today there are 5 clubs in the country and we even have our very own National team.

But it is getting better. Nika Seljak became first artistic swimmer, to compete on the international level.

In June she performed at Junior ECH in Prague.

    • 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
