Mark Arendz and Natalie Wilkie win gold and bronze in men’s and women’s 12.5km standing individual at the Para Biathlon World Championships!

For Canada we have six boxers left. Tremblay, Wright, Al-Ahmadieh and Kali are three wins away from an Olympic quota, while Barriere, Delgado are two. Not sure what to expect.

Good to see getting some wins.

Time for my completely unrealistic schedule for the week. all Canucks games (NHL), Canadian bouts at the World Boxing Olympic Qualifier, Wheelchair Curling World Championships (all Canadian/medal matches), Club volleyball, Brier (Canadian Men’s Curling Championships), WST Street Dubai, BWF French Open, ATP/WTA Indian Wells, ISU Speed Skating Single Distance Championships, TYR Pro Swim Series Westmont, FIVB Doha Elite16, and finally the FIS Aerials/Moguls/Dual Moguls/Snowboard Cross WCs. Edit: Also any random athletics/swimming meets, winter sport events I can find.

Men's +92Kg - Alexis Barriere def. Davit Chaloyan (4-1)

Huge victory for Alexis Barriere as he defeats 2021 world silver medalist Davit Chaloyan 4-1 to advance to the R16 at the World Boxing Olympic Qualifier!

Another boxer out… What a poor tournament they’ve been having

Melissa-Humana Paredes/Brandie Wilkerson qualify for Paris in women’s beach volleyball! Olympic qualification period is far from over, but according to this article (highly credible website) mathematically there’s no chance for 17 teams to have overtaken us by June 9. Still need to get two tournaments in though. One of my biggest hopes for a Paris medal, alongside Kharun. Really hoping we can put the disastrous quarterfinal day at Tokyo 2020 behind us

So according to a highly credible article I found the following teams have mathematically qualified for Paris already, despite the qualification period having not ended yet: Men Anders Mol/Christian Sørum Nils Ehlers/Clemens Wickler David Åhman/Jonatan Hellvig Women Ana Patricia Ramos/Eduarda Santos Lisboa Taryn Kloth/Kristen Nuss Chen Xue/Xinyi Xia Katja Stam/Raisa Schoon Melissa Humana-Parades/Brandie Wilkerson https://volleyballmag.com/olympic-beach-volleyball-probabilities-030524/

I know Brazil doesn’t have any medal worthy winter sport athletes but really? Personally I would rather not have neutralized athletes representing my country, but maybe that’s just me haha.
