Apparently Brazil rejected the girls quota last minute. Wikipedia says it was because "they chose to compete in boys futsal" but that makes no sense because in beach handball, rugby and field hockey there are some nations that will play both genders! plus, Brazil didn't qualify for any other girl team sport, so they aren't binded by the "only one team sport for each gender" rule that all countries except us have to follow.

The same happened to Iran girls, is there some special rule for futsal that I don't know about?

 

It's a little ambiguous, but this article from FIFA website basically says that a nation has to pick Men's or Women's in Futsal. For instance here: "Iran decided to play the Men's Tournament, and Japan accepted. Thailand ended up third and were the next eligible team." https://www.fifa.com/womensyoutholympic/teams/eligible/index.html

 

So my guess is that Brazil and Iran weren't allowed to enter both teams.

Ok, the IOC doesn't really make the rules then... I mean, FIFA can decide this by themselves, FIH allowed us to play both hockey tournaments which shouldn't be allowed to the host nation... who knows.

I said it months ago. that Iran FF was told by AFC to pick one team and they picked the boys team just because they believe they have more chance for medal there.

:MEX Mexican Delegation List :MEX 

 

Maximum number of quotas in individual sports (75) pluc both field hockey teams (18), for a total of 93 athletes.

 

Let's hope one of them can win Mexico's first gold.

Same with Brazil. Our senior women's team is very good, but I don't even know if we have an active youth team - even the qualification was achieved by the senior team, which is really strange but just shows the lack of competitions for youth teams in women's futsal.

 

It's a little mind boggling that FIFA doesn't really shows many interest in women's futsal, but hopefully that is changing.

:POL has place in girls' pentathlon. I'm not sure, how did the reallocation go, but the coordinator coach of Polish Youth A National Team told me, that he got the news from our sports director, that it has something to do with Kazakhstan. The news about quota for Poland is sure and confirmed by an e-mail sent by UIPM to Polish Modern Pentathlon Federation President.

So Kazakhstan is sending a girls rugby team thanks to the magical powers of the one team rule and reallocation

    • I think the reason is that it's generally preferable to have a fast shooter in the 1st leg, and especially in the prone shooting, where Hofer is quite slow.   Now, I'm not saying I agree with the choice, because I don't. I think it's going to neutralize Giacomel's skiing skills in the 1st lap at least.   I guess the idea is to try and set a very fast pace in the 1st leg, which is usually quite tactical, but I'm afraid that's going to force Giacomel to risk too much because he will feel he has to make some time somehow.   Regardless, Italy must be on the podium tomorrow. I think that would be crucial for the following races as well. I think France is the clear favorite, but the other teams are not stronger than Italy on paper.
