Fairly disastrous performance in rowing 

 

 

we finsihed in 25-35 range in all the events .....we used be occassionally in the 12-18 or 18-24 range but tis time nothing .........

 

looking towards the asian qualifiers - In single sculls we finished 5th amongst asian countries at the worlds ( there are 5 slots at the asian regattta ) but with iran not participating here .... we are effectively 6th 

 

In the lightweight mens pair we finished 4th in Asian nations  and we may not have a berth as there are 3 berthsat the asians  ...........but china cannot participate in the asians , so we are effectively third we do have a chance , but its going to be tough

Yeah you are right 

China will not be able to participate  so hoping we might be able sneak both quotas.

but china did not participate in single sculls ........ so we are 5th without china and Iran will 100% be btter than us so we will be at 6th unless we do a lot better than we did here

I don't know but maybe China are not allowed to participate in it at all. Not sure I read somewhere if you get 2 or more quotas you cannot participate in continental qualifiers

IN SINGLE SCULLS ( 5 PLACES AT THE ASIANS ) 

 

the countries which did better than us in order at the world champs 

 

KAZ

UZB

KOR

THAI

 

IRA has very good rowers in Mens Single and did not participate at the worlds , they will surely particicipate in the asians , unless the Indians improve  we will not have a singe sculls quota as only the top 5 get  quotas ( china cannot particpate of course at the asians ) 

 

IN DOUBLE SCULLS ( 3 QUOTA PLACES IN ASIANS )

 

on the other hand in the lightweight  double sculls the countries which did better than us were CHN , JAP,  HKG  ,.,..... CHN cannot particicpate  so we could be in the third place unless IRA or KAZ or KOR particicpate and they have a better team 

 

so we have some chance in the DOUBLE and less chance in SINGLES

 

 

there is a good chance based on the performance we had this world rowing we may not have a single qualifier for rowing , qualification in both events looks highly unlikely

A poor performance by the Judo team .... the only person to win a bout was avtar singh in the 100 Kgs ........... and he was a bit unlucky to meet Jorge of portugal in the next round who went on to win the gold ....... This is a sport I believe we could do much better than we are doing it is a low cost sport like wrestling or boxing

We cannot blame govt or SAI. The Federation itself is not doing right things. It has not sent the only one who is in Continental qualification spot to this championship. 

As for your comparison with Boxing and Wrestling, Boxing is very popular in the some pockets of the country. Wrestling has a tradition all over the country  in one way or another. 

Integration of Judo is tough as people are not inclined towards it's style. It is an acquired taste to say the least.
