Wow, it looks amazing :) is it true that Brazil wants to host all World League matches next year on football stadiums?

Yes, the volleyball federation is talking to Arena da Baixada (the stadium in Curitiba) to host World League matches there. Is probably our only Football stadium that could host something like this (since it has a roof). This match have proven to be a comercial success (cheapest tickets were R$100 - R$50 for students), with more people than any Football match held in that arena in 2016, so of course they will try to replicate that in the future. I just don't know if they could fill the same stadium in THREE matches - maybe they should host the other matches in a smaller arena and only the Sunday ones in the Football stadium.

    • Snow and wind in Ruka this morning, so the scheduled Ski Jumping round was cancelled - good news is that they did manage a provisional round yesterday, so that's going to be used as the base for the race later this afternoon.     Nightmare for Ilves  who won in Norway last week - he starts in dead last place, down among the dead men in the Wave.    Viessmann FIS Nordic Combined Provisional Round Ruka (FIN)    
    • Interesting remark by the  Comms - apparently FIS have restructured their definitions of Cross Country wins, to reduce the impact of all those semi-wins in stage races with a start advantage, so Johaug is now put on 82 wins.   Obviously prompted by Shiffrin on 99....
