Nominations for Prêmio Brasil Olímpico:

 

Best Female Athlete:

Martine Grael/Kahena Kunze (Sailing)

Poliana Okimoto (Open Water Swimming)

Rafaela Silva (Judo)

 

Best Male Athlete:

Isaquias Queiroz (Sprint Canoeing)

Serginho (Volleyball)

Thiago Braz (Athletics)

 

Grael/Kunze (2014), Okimoto (2013) and Queiroz (2015) have all won Best Athlete before. Silva was nominated before and I believe these are the first ever nominations for Serginho and Braz. They also pick the best athlete for each sport - the complete list is here.

Some events are being proposed for Brazil in the next few years following the 2014 World Cup and 2016 Olympics. They are:

 

Women's Football Under 20 World Cup 2020 (Brazil)
Summer Deaflympics 2021 (Rio)
South American Games 2022 (Rio)
Summer Universiade 2023 (Rio)
Women's Football World Cup 2023 (Brazil)

 

I don't think Brazil will actually bid for most of them, but one day it would be nice to have a Women's World Cup here.

Does any of you happen to be somewhat familiar with the Jogos Regionais? So far I've managed to find out they are held in 8 regions in SP, 4 of which finished earlier this month and the other 4 are happening at this moment. The one I'm interested in is the edition in Lençois Paulista, which seems to be the only one without a Facebook page, so if someone could help me out I'd be grateful :p (and if not, no problem, then I'll just wait a little longer until my friend tells me her results)

 

I'm mostly interested in today's and tomorrow's cycling races, seeing as Brazil's winter Olympic hopeful will participate in those. Or well, she said she'll go to Lençois today to participate in two cycling races, which I am guessing are in the Jogos Regionais :d

Talvez um bom momento para ressuscitar esse tópico uma vez que isso aconteceu hoje? :d

Foi incrível :p, principalmente por ser dois títulos inesperados. Já dá até uma animação para esse novo ciclo olímpico, pois eu estava duvidoso com as renovações do vôlei.

Triste a situação do Basquete brasileiro!! Nossa seleção feminina acabou de perder de 67-60 para a fraca Ilhas Virgens, não que eu esteja surpreso, mas ainda... E pensar que há não muito tempo atrás, eramos um dos melhores times do mundo. :cry::cry:

    • People keep keep saying that Trump is Hitler reincarnated, but all these Day 1 proposals are sensible & unifying.   https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=08IIenrXCRQ     NB video is a parody.  
    • In cross-country there were never mixups like that. And trust me, the cross-country calendar/results page has been one of my most visited pages on all the internet for a few years now, for obvious reasons

    • More AI visualizations of the venues.         
    • I can count for you, but what I will say is that I don't think it was a lot. 
    • Off-topic, when I lived in Beijing there was a park across the street that had all the 2022 pictograms along its fence on the street. They were big and lit up at night. It was really cool, especially because the 2022 pictograms were very unique and creative. 
    • They're not very creative or unique to Italy/Milano, but like others have said, at least they're understandable unlike Paris. These are very generic, though. 
    • National law and sport rules are completely different. Like, there's a law in Canada that if you punch someone in the face you will get charged with battery. But if you're playing hockey and do it, you'll only get 5 minutes in a penalty box. Japan only recognizes gender at birth and this was not an issue in 2020(1).    Any law Trump and the Republicans pass can only apply to governmental organizations, i.e. school competitions. Private sport events, like the NHL, MLB and the Olympics, can still decided who can and cannot participate in what events. If the NHL wants a female goaltender to play, they can do that tomorrow if they want. If the IOC decides Semenya can participate in the female category, then that's their right as a private entity. I'm sure Hitler wasn't happy that Jews, black people and other groups were allowed to participate in 1936, either.    Of course, I've been saying for a long time they should do away with "male" and "female" categories and just have "Over/Under X amount of testosterone" categories. 
    • Yeah, if they have all their FTA* live streams on one page, announced in advance, life will be easier. Before you had to sub to about 7 or 8 YT channels to.know what was on every week.   But the results/events Page is also easier, because previously they used to mix up World Cup & say, Balkan Cup events together.
    • UWW's new rules for change of nationality   this doesn't look great for likes of Bahrain, Albania, Bulgaria, Slovakia, Serbia and few more.    still it won't make a huge huge impact for the next Olympic cycle because each NOC still can use 2 mercenaries per style in each tournament but after 2028 it will be reduced to just 1.    some of those countries already have 3 or 4 (or more) Russian mercenaries per style. from now on they have to pick 2 of them for each tournament. I assumed the new rule applies to previous mercenaries too . https://cdn.uww.org/2024-11/change_of_nationality_regulation_eng_oct2024_final.pdf also you can't wrestle for another country without a passport. (UWW allowed that for some years) current non-national wrestlers can continue like that until the end of 2026 though.   it could be better but in general I'm OK with new rules. good job by UWW.
