at the archery world cup at medellin ..... Indian second string team provides no upsets .............no individuals reach semis ...... 2 indian men reach compound quarters ( abhishek and gurwinder ) and 1 indian women in compound quarter lily paonam ...... the only person who stood out was Lily .... I think she may be a good talent for the women compund team with jyothi .........................

 

we lost in the mixed and recurve teams in the 1st and 2nd rounds 

 

so our only hope rests with the compound teams ...India has reached the semis in women compound and quarters in men compound 

Do you support the decision of sending 2nd string team?

 

What was the problem for sending the olympic bound team for gaining valuable exposure and experience?

What's the development around AIBA's decision to allow pro boxers in Olympics? If they have already done it, will Vijender be able to play qualifiers? 

I heard his Asia belt fight dates are clashing with qualifiers

normally before a big event ...to ensure that you peak you have a schedule and the coach  may have events planned at specific times so that you peak at the right time  ............... The indian team has had a large exposure over a long period of time in the last event they were silver medalists and also in the qualification tourney before that so possibly the coach may have a schedule before the event , the mens critical event is coming and if you recollect they  got the bronze in the previous world cup ... so again the may be in practice to iron out some kinks before that...................... I think the coaches decision should be honored ................. even the korean team does not play many tournaments

Can anyone explain me the Judo qualification process?What are the chances for Indians?

 

Judo ...

 

1)  the first 22 men  and top 14 women in each weight category get selected subject to a max of seven per NOC .......non of the Indians are even remotely close here 

2) after that continental quotas (Europe 25, Africa 24, Pan America 21, Asia 20 and Oceania 10 across both sexes and all divisions) are also subjected to an overall limit to one judoka per NOC and two judoka per division from each continent.....so if you do not cross the limit of 7 and 7 you can have a maximum of one more judoka and so on down the list for the asian top 20 countries / pan american 21 and so on depending on your highest ranking judoka  .. In the Asian list India is 18th highest so we will definitely qualify one judoka  ( Jordon and Lebanon below us) ... you can see the full list here

The question is which Judoka will qualify 

 

... In the complex qualification system it may not be the highest ranked though normally it may be ..... currently we have 2 in contention ........... Kalpana in the 52- and avtar in the 90- weight categories ............... currently it is avtar who is getting the continental quota and I feel that will not change by may end   ... In recent times he has gone upto the bronze level match up and lost in the Asian championship so can be a good judoka ..................... he had defeated in this tournament / recent tournaments defeated iranian moradi and chinese Bu  so he has potential to be a medalist at least at the Asian games level ................. I am hoping he will get the quota as the training will be good for him
