I think that it isn't official yet. How it will workf if :POL or :FRA will win quota in women's tournament too?

 

Austria and Poland got the quota in women's hockey 5s. But I'm a bit confused... where are Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, etc? no interest in youth olympics?? :dunno:

 

By the way, quotas for beach handball were decided after the U17 world championships few weeks ago:

 

Men - :ESP:ITA:RUS:VEN:PAR:TPE:THA:MRI:AUS 

Women - :HUN:NED:POR:ARG:VEN:PAR:THA:CHN:MRI:ASA 

 

We have already decided for our women's team to participate, so our men's quota will be reallocated.

The FINA points thing for Youth Olympic qualification is a bit confusing does anyone know how it is officially done? Currently I have added up the points earned at the latest stage for each athlete (Finals > Semis > Prelims) including giving 0 to athletes which were disqualified (currently this does not change who qualifies). Anyway here is the top 30 at the halfway point.

 

1. :USA – 28860

2. :CHN – 27128

3. :RUS – 22251

4. :AUS – 21268

5. :HUN – 20240

6. :CAN – 17480

7. :ITA – 16963

8. :GBR – 15391

9. :JPN – 15230

10. :BRA – 11769

11. :POL – 11334

12. :NED – 10298

13. :ESP – 10246

14. :GRE – 9869

15. :CZE – 8979

16. :GER – 8490

17. :KOR – 8459

18. :EGY – 8326

19. :RSA – 8195

20. :ISR – 8124

21. :SWE – 7962

22. :LTU – 7725

23. :DEN – 7597

24. :SLO – 7377

25. :NZL – 6850

26. :HKG – 6118

27. :SUI – 5868

28. :FIN – 5853

29. :POR – 5713

30. :VEN – 5709

 

Unsurprisingly the larger teams have more points. This is apparent with France whom doesn’t even make the top 30 because they only sent 9 swimmers. Remember all continents must be represented which means Egypt or South Africa will replace the 16th place team should they fail to reach that ranking. Also apparently the mixed relays don’t give FINA points.

From which events are these points? Surely the FINA world champs don't give points towards qualifying for a Youth Olympics which has basically nothing to do with it? Or has FINA gone mad(der)?

They use the results from the senior world champs to decide which nations get 4 men and 4 women quotas, all other nations  can get a maximum of 2 men and 2 women (of course all individual swimmers must reach the qualifying times)

Thanks, that's quite odd.

By my count here are the FINA points ranking, the top 16 will be allowed to send 4 male and 4 female swimmers to the Youth Olympics. The points were calculated by adding up all of the results of each swimmer at the latest stage of an event (finals > semis > prelims)

 

1. :USA - 68004

2. :CHN - 58998

3. :AUS - 51642

4. :HUN - 49912

5. :RUS - 48253

6. :CAN - 40188

7. :ITA - 39789

8. :JPN - 39496

9. :GBR - 39417

10. :POL - 29246

11. :BRA - 26804

12. :NED - 22780

13. :CZE - 22062

14. :RSA - 21747

15. :GRE - 21591

16. :GER - 20814

17. :NZL - 20288

18. :KOR - 20046

19. :EGY - 19979

20. :SWE - 19658

21. :ISR - 19626

22. :DEN - 19619

23. :ESP - 18864

24. :MEX - 17283

25. :LTU - 16948

26. :FIN - 15919

27. :BLR - 15457

28. :VEN - 15034

29. :POR - 14687

30. :FRA - 13975

 

Overall there wasn't a lot of movement in the second half among the top nations. South Africa was able to move into the Top 16 meaning it won't take a continental spot meaning Germany will qualify. Spain had a terrible second half and drops out of the top 16. New Zealand on the other hand had a great second half, but just missed breaking into the top 16. Mexico, Belarus and France entered the top 30 while Switzerland, Hong Kong and Slovenia drop out.

    • 2 things...   first, for what concerns the cooperation between inline skating and speedskating federations...sorry to disppoint some of you, but there's a great cooperation between them   the point is that many "summer" skaters just don't want to try the ice because they have too much to give up for that   you name places like Collalbo or Baselga, but for the "summer skating" guys from centeral and southern regions it's not an option, it's not that they make it for a living with those disciplines, they have to focus on their studies and build a post-competitive sport career and they just can't place themselves into a hole in the mountains when they maybe are studying in some prestigious universities in the big cities   as I already posted more than once, the idea of covering one of those tracks in the mountains was something idiotic, a political concession impossible to be sustained   the one and only chance to build a true legacy and an efficient, attractive national training center was to build a permanent indoor oval in Milan, beside the Forum   that would have given all the "summer skaters" a true opportunity to try the ice experience and at the same time find the most useful, attractive, prestigious places to continue their studies and try and manage them together with their sports career   any other place wouldn't stand a chance   second...don't give Salvini any credit he doesn't deserve...actually, I think he doesn't even know that in Cortina there's a sliding sports track    it's not thanks to him that the Cortina track's building finally went underway 
    • c'mon, guys! relax! sciallatevi un po'!    you're making me sick...it's just the season start and this is a sport where only the world championship (and Olympic, in the specific years) medals count   don't get mad for a couple of races held thousend miles away from home after the team had already passed their first climax (the internal selection)...there are still 2 full seasons before the Olympics
    • Super Round Results   21/11    b.   2-0  b.   9-1   22/11    b.   8-2  b.   9-6   nothing is decided yet, all teams still have a thoretical chance to make the Gold Medal match   Tomorrow, the last day of the Super Round sees  facing the  at Noon local time (4 a.m. CET) and  facing  at 7 p.m. local time (11 a.m. CET)   the medal games are scheduled for Sunday, BMM at Noon local, GMM at 7 p.m. local
    • very poor performance by the US bullpen both Yesterday and Today    not very impressed by this US team for the entire tournament, also in the Mexican first group (Panama deserved to qualify more than them, but they were lucky with the draw and won the decisive direct matchup)   Venezuela confirmed themselves as a very strong team at bat, but with too many troubles on the mound   Today against Japan they had to make a pitching change already in the 1st inning and basically they had to go for a bullpen game, but it didn't come out like the Dodgers'   Japan always on top of their game, even when the pitching staff doesn't perform at best...frankly, they look more and more unbeatable when no MLB superstar is involved (like in this case), but also when it comes down to the top of the pops it's not that they look worse (see 2023 WBC)  there's a serious risk that their domination becomes even too easy, the gap between them and the rest of the world is widening year after year   Taiwan might look like a surprise, but after the 2023 fail, I was sure they were going to rebound and establish themselves among the top teams in the WBSC tournaments, as they are very good in each and every aspect of the game (batting, pitching...maybe a bit less on defense, but you can't have it all)
    • More information has been released on the first edition of the World Athletics Ultimate Championships in 2026, including the events. Mixed 4x100m relay will make its global debut.    https://x.com/worldathletics/status/1859915183071662442?s=46&t=_XjleMNZelg_AVmJy7FfWA
    • Swedish sprint results:   women: 1. Sundling 2. Dahlqvist 3. Hagström 4. Ribom 5. Svahn 6. Lundgren   men: 1. Anger 2. Grate 3. Danielsson 4. McKeever (CAN) 5. Skoglund 6. Grahn
    • is considering US born goalie Joey Daccord for the upcoming 4 Nations Face-Off.    https://thehockeynews.com/news/team-canada-is-seriously-considering-usa-born-joey-daccord-for-4-nations-face-off   .923 SV% in 13 games, and 9-3-1 on the season. Would be a big pickup for our goalie issues.
