Meanwhile, the Men's Volleyball  Challenger Cup will be played on June 20-24.

 

The South American qualifier had just four teams: Chile, Perú, Paraguay and Bolivia.

So no Colombia, Uruguay, Ecuador or Venezuela :(

 

The Asian qualifier had just three teams: Kazakhstan, Pakistan and Chinese Taipei.

So no India, Qatar, Indonesia, Phillipines, etc :(

 

Mexico won't play the Norceca qualifier.

And in European League we don't have Montenegro, Slovenia plays with their B-team, Belgium does not care... even here, in this competition more teams than usually don't treat the competition seriously :facepalm:Well, but that's what you get when you invent a stupid system that clearly favors certain teams at the expense of others, even making them not eligible for relegation.:dunno:

 

We had over 140 countries participate in the World Championship qualification, but clearly most of them doesn't want to waste their money ob this circus, and I can't blame them. In Asia, 20 teams participate in this year's Asian Cup and the new competition "challenge cup"(which is not even a important championship) but noone wants to play here :rolleyes:

 

Also, it's less than a month until the Challenger Cup should start and we don't know the African qualification system yet...

My favourite Volleyball position: LIBERO. You ask why? Look here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZyIOarNAONk

Serbia also usually takes World (nations) league seriously. Too seriously for their own good sometimes

Brazil or France. They must be the only countries that will take this tournament seriously.

      This might be unpopular but it would allow way more sports and quotas and cities to host at a lower cost.

      I think Julia Tannheimer will continue to perform so well on the flatter courses in Ruhpolding and Antholz, which will suit her technique. Oberhof will be more exciting, the courses are very demanding, but quite comparable to the World Championships in Lenzerheide. That's why I'm really looking forward to Oberhof this season. Anyone who can cope well with the courses in Oberhof should also be able to run at the front at the World Championships.

      Thanks for your predictions, they are very interesting.   But here it will be a different format. Combined events - pairs of athletes, one male/female will perform in downhill and other will perform in slalom. E.g. Team SUI 1 Odermatt plus Meillard.

      Interesting (optimistic) predictions for GB. Don‘t See Them winning 5 golds (more than China and as many as Canada). I think 3 golds are more Realistic (Brookes + 2 in curling/skeleton). Especially gold for Bankes seems To be a rather optimistic prediction, given that Casta is 11 years younger and just beat Bankes.

      Medal Table (Change from 2022)    - 20 (+4)  - 13 (+1)  - 13 (+5)  - 9 (+7)  - 9 (=)  - 7 (+2)  - 7 (=)  - 6 (-2)  - 6 (-1)  - 5 (+1)  - 5 (+4)  - 4 (+1)  - 4 (-5)  - 3 (+2)  - 2 (=)  - 1 (=)  - 1 (+1)      -5,  -2,  -2,  -2, , -1, , -1, , -1 fail to male the list   On 1st glance 1 feel I have underestimated Canada, Sweden and Finland, and overestimated GB (obviously) and Netherlands.    If the Russians aren't competing then the Norwegians will have a field day in cross country skiing, but it is too early to tell.   World cups and championships aren't always the best measure for some sports but it's the best I can find.      As an overall trend I feel this will be a strong games for the European nations (home advantage) but the Asian nations might struggle, not necessarily at the extent I predicted here but I don't think their results will be as good as Beijing.
