Africa is not in, certainly this sport is ugly 

 

This should have just been a demonstration sport and I will treat it as such. ;)

Yesterday was indeed an awesome day for the Mongolian league with 4 tournaments and 400,000 points gained. Today they played only 3 tournaments, rumor has it that players asked for a lunch break. Hope

On November 1, FIBA will organize a livestreamed show in Utsunomiya, Japan to reveal the teams who have qualified for the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, directly or indirectly via the FIBA 3x3 Olympic Qualifyin

I don't care if it worked, 4 out of 8 teams are going to qualify for the Olympics (and the other teams coming from the OQTs also depending on ranking) through a ranking which is flawed, open to manipu

One easily can: just don't watch it. They won't care, but I don't care that they don't care so there we go :p

By the way, how come the Canadian women, who apparently 'have one of the best teams on the tour', didn't get to the World Cup at least the past five times?

World Cup qualification is based on the same idiotic ranking.

Well, idiotic as it is, it doesn't exactly seem like they've been very smart then...Canadian federation definitely seems to be to blame for it (apart from this qualification system being utterly insane obviously).

Canadian federation doesn't invest any money in 3x3 at all. They literally don't care about it.

 

Doesn't change the fact that Canada has the second best women's team in the world (which perhaps is a huge problem in and of itself - a country that literally invests nothing in 3x3 has a world class team).

 

Still, they should not be punished because Canada doesn't have highly ranked players ranked 5th to 100th. It's a four person team, only the top four athletes should matter.

Yeah, at the end of the day, everyone knew the rules (as dumb as they were) well in advance. The point was to create depth for the sport, oppose to nations only having four athletes each. Here's hoping for a 16-team tournament in the future with continental qualifiers so that the best can have an opportunity to qualify.

Ah yes, I'm sure Mongolia is very deep in 3x3...

      I thought the only continental quotas applied in track cycling was for the individual events - the team events were purely based on the rankings list

      keeps its perfect qualification record in women's curling    definitively gave them a lot of gifts today. For their sake hopefully they can draw better against the  tomorow.

      whatever you heard is just speculation. no one knows at the moment, probably even the orange himself.   and Iranian athletes failed to get visa so many times before. even female athletes. there is no pattern, it's just too random.    and yes Iran has a system of compulsory military service for men, and there is 50% chance for anybody to be randomly drafted by IRGC affiliated organizations. that's the case for Taremi and few others in the current team.

      Some changes that I've noticed:   3x3 Basketball: With the expanded 12 team field, one extra team per gender qualifies through world rankings, one extra team qualifies through the universality driven tournament and there's now an Olympic Qualifier series to award the final quotas.   Beach Volleyball: Continental qualifiers have have priority over the World championship and World Rankings quotas and there's now Olympic Qualifier Series quotas.   Canoe Sprint: World ranking system now in place and will be used instead of awarding world championship quotas. Road Cycling: 2 nations ranking quotas per gender moved to universality.   Track Cycling: Sprint and Keirin ranking list is now combined and will award 14 quotas per gender. Previously it was 7+7. Team pursuit down to 8 quotas from 10. 2 of the quotas have been moved to madison (one additional team) and 6 to the omnium.   Fencing: Can get a Continental quota of you finished in the top 24 of the rankings. It was previously top 16.    Hockey: 2 pro league quotas replace two qualification tournament quotas.   Judo: 5 less universality places and 4 more Continental places. For men, there's two more spots for Asia, one less for Oceania and 1 more for the Americas. For the women, there's one more spot for Europe, one less for Oceania and two more for Asia.   Modern Pentathlon: Less quotas awarded through world rankings as a result of quota cuts.   Open Water Swimming: Introduction of world ranking qualifier.   Sailing: In general, seems to be more quotas awarded at the last chance regatta and less quotas at the World Championships   Shooting: One less quota handed out at each World Championship and the return on World Cup qualifiers.   Swimming: Olympic qualification and consideration times renamed to A and B standard. B standard is now 1% slower than the A standard compared to 0.5% in 2024. Stroke 50s have their own direct qualification events and have minimum time standards instead of A and B standards. Qualification times have been nuked again. B standard selection process has also changed.   Volleyball: New revised format. Continental championships first, then world championships followed by world rankings. In 2024, it was 3 qualification tournaments and then world rankings. Only 3 countries per gender will qualify by world rankings now compared to 5 in 2024
