  3. Men's 63.5Kg - Robert Jitaru def. Elifas Shailemo (I think - am relying on a Google translation that is a bit...flowery)
  4. I can't be the only person whose eyes rolled at the sight of "Urban Innovation Festival"?
  5. Media reports suggesting that Zohaib Rashid absconded from his team hotel and hasn't been seen since Saturday.
  6. End of session 6, we lose and from the tournament.
  7. I think he had said previously that we would have a clearer picture by March, so he has been true to his word. The fact that she hasn't returned to team training and didn't make the squad for Hong Kong is the nail in the coffin for her Olympic hopes although I think she realised that the World Champs later in the year was a more likely prospect for a return.
  8. Well, the early optimism unfortunately didn't last long in Doha - Bello brothers lose to Rossi & Lupo 21-17 / 14-21 / 5-15. Such a shame - that was definitely a winnable match-up.

  21. I think we are probably heading for the smallest GB boxing team since Beijing. For the last 3 games, GB have had at least 10 boxers qualify - at the moment I can't see us getting into double figures for Paris. In Beijing, we had 7 and we might even struggle to match that this time. Having said that, probably worth bearing in mind that the number of places available in boxing has dropped for Paris - there's about 40-50 fewer quotas available. Perhaps more worrying is the lack of an obvious medal favourite in the squad - if they don't come back with any medals from Paris then GB Boxing will likely see their funding cut significantly.
  22. Should also say that if are to get the quota via the European Nations Cup, then we will need a second pairing as part of the team - that is likely to be Batrane and Bialokoz.
  23. Agreed - would be great to see a beach volleyball event being held in the UK again. The event got an amazing reception at London 2012 and at the Commonwealths in '22. I think the Bellos were targeting LA '28 as their best chance of getting to an Olympics, but they have decent chance of getting the European quota given they were 5th at last year's European Champs. The problem has always been that the size of the draws in beach volleyball events are so small that it is difficult for them to play on the main tour week in week out so they end up playing at lower level events which don't really help their overall ranking.
  24. The draw for the preliminary phase of the 2024 CEV Nations Cup took place last month. Men's Draw:
