Why not ... Even Karam Malleshwari or PT Usha..etc

the role of the officials is management....

Not every sportsperson is capable of managing affairs...

Ex-olympians and sportspersons should be encouraged to taker up coaching instead.....

so many academies lack quality training and guidance.....

I faced same issue when I was in France during 2008 Olympics .. Still I remember, one my the French colleague ran to me and asked is this first gold medal, India ever got ..I just smiled and said Yes..  For them , India is great country with great talent and Surprised to hear it.

 

Now I am in US, Even that opportunity I don't have .. :(.. we are not bad man .. just unlucky ...cant hold the nerve..

I guess India need more exposure with our own people... I am sure 25% indians still feel that Virat Kohli is a medal contender.... All the national games should be given same exposure like Olympics ... Schools should have some sports mandatory and emphasis on those students who do well in sports... We have limited participation in sports .. we need to get more enthusiasm in Volley ball, basket ball, Judo etc...

Ur looking at the top....But improvement comes from the bottom....The big changes in India's olympic fortunes wont change till the next generation of athletes come up...

We need our top former athletes and sportspersons to go right at the grassroot level or atleast in the junior levels.

changes would only be visible after 8-10 years

    • Honestly, I think you guys have a much better chance of success here than we do. It's already difficult to maintain this sport, and with this ridiculous format this year, things have gotten even worse. Years and years participating in the elite and we haven't been able to evolve; it was just a waste.

    • Another weak result for our athletics team, which is typical; without Caio or Alisson, our chances of a medal in any high-level tournament are almost zero.   However, Juliana's result in the women's pole vault was a great 7th place. She is improving rapidly and still has a lot of room for growth.

    • some changes in the team and less importance to the sport, the two big teams until 2022/2023 ( and ) in south america started to decrease a lot and in the other hand the 3rd in South America () is growing a lot, is really impressive. We are currently the favourites for the LA2028 quota
    • Last few weeks of the World Cup season for winter sports (and Junior Worlds, depending on streaming), Men's Curling Worlds, Saquarema Elite 16, and some tennis   That's it unless I'm missing something, not much going on    Which is a good thing honestly, very busy next couple of weeks.
    • What happened to Brazil's women's team? On the other hand it looks like Argentina may be the top South American team on the women's side. Defeating Spain, China and South Africa was unlikely up until this year
    • These are the teams I think will qualify for the WC this window:           Hoping for some debutants to qualify!
    • defeats  7-5 for gold, Schwaller goes from junior world champions to world champions only two years later   win bronze 8-5 over
