Finally, my end of year favorite activity

@Sindo will we have our favorite Christmas lights again this year ?

Good debut for Lampič. Needs more experience but if she keeps her speed, she can be a world star

But, Congrats Cloetens for getting a podium for Belgium!

It's funny, I google "olympic schedule 2024" or some variant a couple of times a week to see if there are updates, and this has never come up! So thanks! Update coming!

and Wilton Sampaio ( Brazil ) for France vs England

Thanks boss

Argentinian Referee to Portugal vs Morocco match

Didn't help them that the first two recruited members had Norwegian and French flags under their names before turning to Belgium So we can't solely take the blame for this.

Maybe she focused on shooting a bit too much.

hope ya'll know that she's actually from France (Youth World Champion with the French relay in 2020/2021 , 5th in the Sprint and 7th in the Individual in the same tournament)...

I was so wrong Very very impressive indeed on the skis, and above all her shooting may not be as erratic as it could. Didn't see her prone but 5/5, 36s, that's fair enough. Then the standing, with three mistakes of course but look at how she managed to put the last two, in 31s total which is quite decent. Will be very interesting to see her in a peloton (or alone then) and shooting in confrontation, but this performance is encouraging. Also really exciting as for the skiing abilities of the young IBU Cup guns

Ok, what was that ? Anamarija, woo hoo 😄

Ohhhh,so close for Lampic,wasn't far from beating Elvira,but she did beat Hanna.She's gonna make things really interesting.

Lampić clear on one! Could win with 3/5!

Davidova with a 9/10

Snowing in Edinburgh. Marks the beginning of our annual one-week ski & sledging season.

Tbh, there are 2 reasons why I consider skipping these games and focus on Winter 26. Firstly, i am really worried about safety issues. Post-euro 16 Nice was total disaster. we could see how awful and amateurish French police and agencies are and how easily they loose their focus within days after the big event ends at least the Olympics are not on july 14th this time but this idea for opening ceremony is not good for safety reasons, i will not attend for sure even if sb give me golden circle tickets but that are my thoughts for now maybe i change my mind when i spend june 23 in Paris i don’t think so though

Agree? https://www.theguardian.com/football/2022/dec/07/world-cup-2022-power-rankings-how-the-remaining-eight-teams-shape-up-qatar?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other

The updated full schedule is below. One change I saw is that the times and venue (Lille) are set for prelims in basketball. The finals tickets that aren't on sale yet will go on sale as single tickets in May- tickets in this round have to be bought in packs of 3. Thanks for doing your version of the schedule, it will be helpful for me as I finalize my ticket preferences. https://press.paris2024.org/download-pdf/638721f01dbcfdbc1403f793.

well, not so much... I mean, in most Countries many athletes of the socalled "minor sports" have to enter the military groups to have a salary and time to train professionally... also in Italy 99% of the top athletes in almost every individual sport (except for tennis, golf, motorsports) are enrolled into the military corpse (we have many: the main police -aka Fiamme Oro- the jail police -aka Fiamme Azzurre- the Financial Guard -aka Fiamme Gialle- the regular Army, the socalled "Carabinieri" -which is a selected corpse within the Army- the Aviation and the Marine Corpse)... and once their sport career is over, if they want, they can continue another career in the actual job they are going to be prepared for.

Anamarija Lampič is confirmed to start the sprint in Hochfilzn this week. Let's see how it turns out. I recon she can get points if she has a decent shoot. Say seven out of ten.

If I could get any ticket I want and if I could be able to spend the whole olympics in Paris my very early plan would look sth like that (VERY EARLY DRAFT, PART ONE, FIRST FEW DAYS) Wed 24.7 RUGBY SEVENS - Men's Pool Rd Thu 25.7 RUGBY SEVENS - Men's Pool Rd and QFs / (HANDBALL - Women's Tournament if POL qualifies, chances are 7-12 % imho) Fri 26.7 OPENING CEREMONY Sat 27.7 CYCLING ROAD - M and W Time Trials SWIMMING - Finals and SF Sun 28.7 EQUESTRIAN - Eventing Cross Country SWIMMING - Finals and SF Mon 29.7 CANOE SLALOM - M C1 SF and F SWIMMING - Finals and SF Tue 30.7 TRIATHLON - M SWIMMING - Finals and SF In the meantime, if it's possible - VOLLEYBALL (if Men's POL team is playing against strong opponent, chances to qualify >95%), if not - BASKETBALL USA Game if they are playing if not - TENNIS Wed 31.7 ROWING TENNIS or BEACH VOLLEYBALL SWIMMING - Finals and SF Thu 1.8 ROWING GYMNASTICS ARTISTIC - W Ind All-Around Final In the meantime - if it's possible - TENNIS or BEACH VOLLEYBALL Fri 2.8 ROWING SWIMMING - Finals and SF In the meantime - if it's possible - TENNIS or BEACH VOLLEYBALL TBC... :-) of course, this is my wish list, not at all possible, but one can dream...

From what I read you will only be able to resell tickets on the official site, at face value. Hopefully that leaves the tickets for actual fans

Yeah, South Sudan has made basketball a priority ever since it became an independent nation. It's nice to see their efforts paying off.

Anyone noticed how South Sudan is more or less a shoe in for the qualification?

Gossner during her best season was a joy to watch. Still saddened how her career turned out post-injury
