Do they have any juniors in the higher women's weights?

Interesting because third (Gabun) also switched to 81. I guess they want Antoine Bouchard to go for it in the 73

This made me lol

I believe after 2002 is when the IOC started issuing qualifying standards/quotas for winter sports. I'd guess the drop to 14 was partly to cut quotas and to standardize with all other team sports except soccer.

See @hckošice I guess the key to Slovak success is being pessimistic before the event /jk Congrats on beating Canada Belarus!

Bach's predecessor Jacques Rogge has passed away, shortly after the last games he awarded. RIP

@Wumo are we not predicting thr fifth to eighth place round?

Only Canada can have athletes be defending World Champion x3 and not win the Paralympic/Olympic gold...

Looks like will compete after all! https://www.cbc.ca/sports/paralympics/team-afghanistan-arrive-tokyo-paralympics-1.6156994

Lol iihf dropped the USA below the Czechs?

Wow Denmark! If they qualify.... that would guarantee Denmarks largest Winter Olympic team ever.

If it would fulfill your fantasy, sure why not

What a match between canada and Brazil in volleyball

I dont think anyone was lol

Rip Slovenia

Yup... Canada had two defending Champs in swimming and lost both here due to athletes I'm higher categories.

Probably players that were playing in Belarus and were naturalized. Who in their right mind would choose to move to Belarus permanently from Canada?

Wow in a complete shock, Argentina is eliminated in the group stage of the Women's Pan American Junior Championships. Argentina has won 7/8 editions of the tournament and was the defending World Champion, now won't even qualify for the tournament.

Hopefully neither tbh. Commonwealth Games are pretty much a dead event after 2022 and there is no "need' for WOG in Canada atm.
