according to Iranian wrestling federation, they received a message from UWW today , it seems they managed to find a host ! our federation was told the possible date is 3-5 April or 11-13 April

 

UWW told them they are confident "that country" will most probably host the AQT (not a sure thing yet) but also told the Iranian federation to test its delegation (wrestlers, coaches etc) few times and bring all these documents to that host country ! UWW is still not sure what that host country will ask to let the Iranian team in. this message was a kind of heads up for the Iranian federation to prepare those medical requirements.

 

in UWW message they mentioned that country is already hosting some events. I wonder who is that brave country ? :mumble: Qatar ? Thailand ? or somewhere outside of Asia ?

 

ps: right now there is no training camp in Iran, they sent all wrestlers home but the plan is to make the national camp something like a prison ! nobody out, nobody in. then invite a very limited number of wrestlers to train there.  they are also talking to some countries (apparently Armenia) to host our wrestlers, making it easier to travel without that quarantine period.

 

If it's in Asia, sounds like Jordan or Qatar.

I heard some rumors today that indicates two countries as possible host, exactly those 2 you mentioned !

 

but on other hand, I also heard Jordan is considering postponing Taekwondo AQT, so that doesn't make sense to host Wrestling AQT with much more number of athletes and guests and beside that they are VERY weak in wrestling even referees help or fixing the draw won't give them quotas.

If it's not Jordan, I am not sure how's the relationship between Arabian countries and Qatar right now, will they be against Qatar?

Saudi and UAE participated in a football tournament in Qatar and their football teams travel (or used to travel) to Qatar for AFC Champions League, they are a bit moody in these things, UAE for example didn't participate in Asian Shooting Championships in Qatar (which was Olympic qualifier in probably the only sport they are good)

it's not really Arabian countries vs Qatar, it's Saudi and UAE and maybe Bahrain , none of them are relevant in wrestling, so it won't be a problem. Bahrain has 2-3 good naturalized wrestlers but I'm sure nobody misses mercenaries if Bahrain decides to not participate (which I highly doubt)

Our wrestling federation says they received a letter from UWW, which says

 

* Africa/Oceania qualification event will be held in Morocco in May

* European QT will be in Hungary again in May

* World last chance qualifier will be in Bulgaria in June

 

as for Asia, their plan to find a host in April failed, they are still looking for a host but the date is most probably in May.

If it's in May, it could just go back to China. :p

UWW is postponing all Olympic Qualification Tournaments to almost the same date in 2021, small changes in dates are possible and hosts won't be changed.

    • Weightlifting formula is more or less similar to 2020 which was considered terrible by everybody!    this is a tough sport, you can't be in your best shape for too many events. there will be risks of serious injuries this way. with these rules you need 5 good results to qualify. if you bomb out in an event to score a zero you are out of the Olympics unless you replace it with another event. which means most of these poor guys have to participate in 7-8 events (and not just 5) to make up for possible bomb outs.    most importantly if you get injured anytime during this period (almost 2 years) you are out of the Olympics! that's how Sohrab Moradi missed the Tokyo Olympics despite breaking the WR during the qualification period. you can miss the Olympics in 2028 if you get injured late 2026 !  Karlos Nasar couldn't win the Olympic title if we had these rules in 2024   I understand 2024 qualification formula wasn't great either, it had its own flaws but this one is much worse for threatening athletes' health.

Although the agenda has not been published yet, there shouldn’t be any major items over these two days, apart from the election of a member of the IOC Executive Board. This will be the eighth time the session is held in Italy, the last one being during the Turin 2006 Olympic Games.

    • What is happening in Canada , people leave it  They say life is very expensive , you cant find an appartement , the salary is miserable    is it the multi tax of Trump? 
    • Weightlifting We now have six events per gender with a total of 10 athletes per event.   The Olympic Qualification Rankings will be based on the sum of the total results of five events (three from period 1 and two from period 2). The top 8 will qualify.   The 9th spot will also be based on the OQR, but it will go to the highest ranked athlete from an unrepresented continent.   The 10th spot will be split between the host and universality (3 each per gender). Should the United States qualify normally then their host quota will be reduced, first going to an athlete from an unrepresented continent then to the overall highest ranked athlete.   Additionally, a "Best Lifter" will be awarded which would give the nation the chance to qualify 4 athletes rather than the max of 3.
