 That’s Ecuador on the plane to Korea!! And extra good news for Bruna, maintaining her 100% Brazilian record and with a time that would beat lots of the Brazilian men!

African Sitting Volleyball Championships 2017 have concluded in Kigali, Rwanda.

The Men's Tournament saw Egypt beat Rwanda in the final to take gold and Morocco beat Algeria to win bronze.

This means that the following nations have qualified for the 2018 Sitting Volleyball Championships, the first stage of Paralympic Qualification:

On the Women's side the gold medal match saw a reversal of fortunes, with Rwanda beating Egypt to claim gold. Kenya beat Congo DR to claim the bronze.

Jungbluth scored some great FIS points in yesterday's race. His average is now 308, so he should be able to secure first ever Ecuadorian qualification by the end of the Sao Carlos races.

Hopefully, but he scored 487 points today!! He needs to improve his 5th score, currently 375, so something around 330 points should be enough to send him to PyeongChang!

Awful decision by European Weightlifting to move the European Weightlifting Chanpionships to late 2018 so that banned countries can take part! Makes a mockery of the ban, hope the IWF steps in and bans them from the 2018 European Championships whenever it is held in the year.

2nd one working here!

That's my simulation of Olympic quotas after Budapest. If you can please check, if I'm correct.

Looks good but you have Kazakhstan down twice for men!

The following countries have all been given one year bans for repeated doping in Weightlifting. The ban will include this years world championships, next years Youth Olympics, Asian Games, Junior World Championships and continental championships. The list is:

 Russia 

 Kazakhstan

 Belarus

 Azerbaijan

 Armenia

 Turkey

 Ukraine

 China

 Moldova

Singapore could be just 0.07 points off an Olympic quota, how painful!!

Don’t know if we’ve nudged @Jur yet but I think I’ve seen him around and Spain is always an exciting addition to the contest! 

Pairs competition finished and the qualifiers are:

 Australia

 Austria

 North Korea

 Israel

 Czech Republic

Wow the Israeli pair have set a huge new pb of 115.7 up from 107.4. This piles the pressure onto North Korea and Czech Republic.

In the women’s singles  currently a little way clear of  who are chasing behind.

@dcro do you know if the tough Swedish entry standards apply to their women’s single, because that would open a space for one of the chase group to qualify?

Bit below par for North Korea, 4 points down on last years World Championships.

Might be tough for them to finish in top 4 here if Israel and the Czech Republic are at their best in the free skate. They may well need to rely on a reallocated French quota unless they produce near their best in the free.

Slightly different but Para bobsleigh will be added to the Beijing 2022 Paralympic programme. So maybe they will also try and add a new Olympic sport as well?

What a surprising entry from GB :o Bold one

Everyone seems to be having the idea of picking something a bit different this year! Will make for a very interesting selection of songs in the end and potentially some very diverse voting as many different styles will appeal to different users.
