Hide contents Actually it's break-dancing boys and break-dancing girls. Then why are the athletes in judo not called J-Boys and J-Girls?!

Fly_like_a_don 971 Posted October 4, 2018 #574 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Led in by their boys hockey 5s captain,21 member contingent of Vanuatu will also compete in beach volleyball and athletics... But the ones to be watched are the 2 hockey 5s team... Having a team larger than many nations including Serbia and Denmark is great... And they are one of the watchable teams on the 1st competition day in hockey 5s...if it's shown by the Olympics channel.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

intoronto 4,362 Posted October 4, 2018 #576 Share Posted October 4, 2018 (edited) will have 13 athletes (Archery 1, Athletics 4, Badminton 1, Basketball 4, Gymnastics 1, Shooting 1, Swimming 1). This is the most ever, which is surprising as this was the first Youth Olympics the country was not eligible for wild card/tripartie spots. All athletes qualified or received an unused quota spot. The medal hopes lie with two athletes in track and field. Their 2000m girls' steeplechase runner is 3rd ranked in the world and their boys' high jumper is ranked tied for fourth. Hopefully they win their first ever Youth Olympics medal! Edited October 4, 2018 by intoronto thiago_simoes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jur 566 Posted October 4, 2018 #580 Share Posted October 4, 2018 María Vicente, spanish flagbearer. I am shocked by our Olympic Comitee taking this lowkey serious and making fancy portraits of all the delegation: https://www.flickr.com/photos/152845460@N03/sets/72157698782540072/with/31198657818/ did it too in 2014, but they don't do it for the actual Olympics, I really don't get it, but at least they do something....
