No.. Only 3 can participate in individual & same 3 will participate in team event. So Mangal Singh Champia + 2 others or Indian NOC can go with 3 archers excluding Champia. It's upto the NOC to decide the team.

 

Max 3 archers per gender if we win the quota as team

:hatoff:Thank you for the clarification

Confirmed - India to face Turkey in 1st round of Oly qualifier. The link below shows the first round opponents of all Indians.

The draw seems to be favorable ...except that we are meeting the host ( so obviously home advantage )  but overall TUR are not at all strong in mens recurve...........................   besides that the only strong side we have in our half is Russia ( who we would meet only in the semis if it goes by the seeding ) ..... In the other half are most of the tough countries like Mexico , GBR , Japan , France , Kaz , GER ...................................

Yeah, 4th overall for Das which is excellent, 17th for Talukdar, 58th for Rahul and a very poor 80th for our individual quota winner Mangal Champia.

 

Reasonable draw i'd say in the oly qualifier. Turkey or Thailand in Rd1, Malaysia or Ukraine in QF and mostly Russia in semi. Mexico, Germany, Japan, France, Britain all in the other half.

 

Also, I believe Rahul will have to play the oly qualifier despite Mangal being selected for Rio ahead of Rahul. Not sure about the rules here but I beleive that since seeding is based on score achieved by Rahul, it will have to be Rahul who participates. And haven't seen any case in a world cup where a country has selected 4th place finisher ahead of the 3rd place finisher for the team event.

 

Of course, this could be a bit tricky. If the federation ruling is that no matter who wins quota, Mangal will be going to Rio then it means Rahul's motivation to perform in the qualifier goes down a notch. This is the disadvantage of jumping the gun and holding trials and declaring a team before even the quota is won.

 

The oly qualifier is on Thursday, start to finish, hopefully AAI declares something by then such as, say, a re-trial between just Mangal and Rahul. 

 

Rahul is long term member and would do his very best I am sure ........Mangal won an individual quota ( not based on Federation ) but once a country wins a team quota ( the federation can select any 3 people as the team quota supersedes individual quota .so they will have a final trial I am sure ....................... but the third member score is very much weaker than the other two a 

 

Atanu 681 

jayanta 671 

 

but Rahul 656 which is very weak - I hope he can buck up ....if you see his pattern of play I was a little concerned as he seems to play one round rreally well and then follow it up with 8s in the next round he needs more focus, as this can be the difference in a close fought match

Okay I have news from Archery Association of India that Mangal will play instead of Rahul here and at Olympics as well. Mangal Champia finished poor here as he failed to judge the wind in first round. I am happy with strict policy of AAI unlike WFI

Are you sure as the official world archery entry lists are showing rahul not mangal ...Can they  change the list - I think they can ? 

 

 

I checked the score swings

 

Rahul had a break score of ............... 329/327 

Mangal had a break score of ..............320/331 

 

which means that Mangal scored very well in the second part compared to the first part while rahul was more even ........ so it makes sense to go with Mangal  ( also mangal had a shocker 5 somewhere in the first part not clear why )

    • And even here we lose to France? I really don't know what's the point of organizing the Olympics if you can't make progress in practically any sport. France has the Olympics in 2030 and there they will definitely prepare 100%, just like for Paris. We can't do that. It's obvious that in ski jumping we have no chance of winning medals, but decency dictates that we should at least win here with a France like that.
    • Finally the ski jumping season begins 11 teams in the (real) mixed team competition, no Switzerland.
    • Most of our athletes are constantly bothered by something: the pressure to qualify, the miss of pressure when they have already qualified, etc. It's the same in football: at the beginning of the season they are a poor form becouse of a little played and at the end of the season they are tired. They are always looking for excuses. A real champion always plays at a high level, like Sinner, and doesn`t look for 1000 excuses for his poor performance.
    • Think it is mentally difficult for the two teams with the Olympic place guaranteed and the pressure off, whereas everyone else is absolutely playing at 110%.  I'm sure things will be better once they get to Milan. 
    • There's no point in cheating, these were terrible European Championships for us. Retronaz out of form, Constantini with a huge number of big mistakes. Only illness can excuse it... We've probably lost the last 10 matches with Switzerland... It looks like Constantini had the tournament of her life in mixed doubles in 2022 in Beijing and she will never reach this level again.
    • What good is it to us if we took 4th place and lost an important match? If Constantini was sick, I forgive her, but I'm afraid that the Italian team will not exceed a certain level. Yes, they have made progress since 2022, but they lack that one decisive step to become a class team. Here we lost all important matches with teams at our/higher level: Sui x2, Sco x2, Swe. We only won with the one we were supposed to win with. I don't believe in a medal for this team in Cortina. After 2022, it seemed that Constantini could dominate women's curling, but it didn't happen that way. After Sinner's recent successes, I opened my eyes a bit and started to demand more from our athletes, coaches, and officials. I have no intention of being satisfied with 4th place, because with this approach, you won't achieve anything great.
    • play their best, but only get 1, so  get bronze 6-4!  
    • Oh dear, once again a 50% shot from Constantini when she needed 100%.   blank the end & go into the 10th with the Hammer of Thor.  
    • Very quick end &  get 2 back to 6=3, but  have the hammer in ninth....
