please stop funds !

How is it ever going to improve if you stop funding? :p 

 

I've heard our NOC boss talking like this: "These and these sports (swimming, equestrian, judo) disappointed in Rio, we might give them less money"...that only makes it worse :lol:

I mean only for mens, we really don´t need it. our mens basketball sucks as heck...it´s  not that we are not competitive in this sport...we actually never was. since our independance we barely win some matches. The second thing is that because our stupid laws about the sport state funding, which say that the amount of funds of the state for each sport is literally determined by the popularity of the sport in the country. and since mens team doesn´t interest anyone but really anyone, really it´s probably the less popular mens team in the country. most suffer of it the womens 

 

No seriously if you ask me it´s about a long while that I´m persuated that is Better to dissolve the whole mens section (at least for some years and TRY to keep working only with juniors) and move the whole focus and support to womens which deserve it much more.

That sounds a lot like our men's basketball a while back, the decision to stop the national team was even already made..until some magic happened and all of a sudden some good stuff came out :d 

 

Wanna borrow some magic? :evil:

    • It's true, but Colturi still only 1 person and for example in the men's slalom we have tragic results. In giant slalom again we last won many years ago. For example, Switzerland has a complete team, which has not only stars but also wide teams in every discipline + young successors.   Scattolo is an option after 2026. For now, all that remains is to count on Vittozzi's return - apart from her, no one is able to regularly stand on the podium.
    • That was the IBU Cup winner spot, guaranteed for the first two weeks (won by Michelon last year). Galmace Paulin will definitely not get a spot in January. If someone has to be demoted, it would be Chauveau, to make room for Botet. Galmace Paulin is like 5th or 6th in the pecking order at the moment.
    • Maybe Galmace Paulin can take The Spot of Richard, Michelon or Chauveau later this season. In Hochfilzen France Had 7 Spots, not sure What happened. If The french Team can get Back that Spot, then Galmace Paulin should be The First candidate.   Tannheimer, Michelon, Richard, Kirkeeide and Andersson are all more likely than Not To make The Podium this Season in my opinion. With a bit of luck, half The Top 10 in The Overall Ranking at The end of The Season could be athletes born in 2002 or later.
    • Biathlon: I think your Coaches should promote Scattolo.  Alpine skiing: Things Would Look very different if Colturi would Compete for You.  
    • It also appears 1 noc has withdrawn   https://oca.asia/news/5781-harbin-2025-awg-organisers-confirm-record-number-of-entries.html
    • If my figures are correct, I confirm that this is the international debut in top-level competition for Turkmenistan, Kuwait and Thailand. i believe it is also the debut in a senior competition for Mongolia
    • The Youth Olympic Games have used the group format before due to a large number of entries. The 2023 Winter EYOF also used a two group format in the mixed team event.   Still, it's cool to see so many nations registered for the Asian Winter Games. 
    • Stage 10 in Alta Badia (ITA)   Men´s Slalom:   1. Timon Haugan    1:45.40 2. Loic Meillard    1:46.53 3. Atle Lie McGrath    1:46.66   Full Final Results HERE

    • Curling will have 14 participating nations, with the men's and mixed doubles events have a group stage (surely a first for an international MSE event? @Olympian1010?)   Mixed doubles   Group A:   I believe this is Turkmenistan's (and possibly Thailand and Kuwait) international curling debut.   Group B:   Women's:   Men's:   Group A:   Group B:
