Same.... getting the same error

Looks like we are headed to a merger of Ski Jumping Canada, Biathlon Canada, Nordic Combined Canada and Nordiq Canada. http://www.nordicstrategy.ca/uploads/2/9/0/5/29058833/nordic_strategy_update_apr-28-22.pdf

Second stop has started from Milton

What are the changes?

Caileigh Filmer, rowing bronze medalist, has switched to track cycling

Caileigh Filmer, rowing bronze medalist, has switched to track cycling

Beach volleyball: South America guaranteed 7 spots per tournament, most likely 8 (+1 or +2 from Lima). Sucks for the smaller Caribbean islands.

More qualification system news: Badminton: Same system as 2019, May 2, 2023 ranking to be used. Canada has the potential to have 10 athletes (due to Cali winners). Cycling BMX: Men and women each have 20 slots (basically balancing the quota from 2019) Athletics: Quota stays the same, program will be the same as in Paris, all field events reduced to 12 athletes max (down from 14-16 in 2019). Now the games are being held at a bad time, so its likely everyone who wants to compete can. There is no qualification times/distances, rather the winner of four qualifying events + the World rankings from Jan 1, 2022 to September 18, 2023 will be used.

A total of 16 countries qualified wrestlers at the qualification tournament, one more than the ENTIRE 2019 Pan Am qualified list, with half the quotas still left. Not bad! (Does not include wild cards)

Men's freestyle wrestling quotas

Women's wrestling quotas

Would have been good for fourth in Tokyo!

Two other Canadian men with 74+ throws already this season and 2 of the 3 under 23. Hammer throw looks to have a promising future in Canada.

Greco Roman quotas: 60: + (Cali 2021) 67: + (Cali 2021) 77: + (Cali 2021) 87: + (Cali 2021) 97: + (Cali 2021) 130: + (Cali 2021) Each of the fist five weight categories have three places at next Pan Ams + CHI, while 130kg has 4 spots open.

Pan Am Championships started yesterday, Canada won 2 gold medals on the first day of WW, (we had 0 last year), albeit both were in non-Olympic events. However, Karla Godinez did win gold by beating former World Champion and fifth place finisher in Tokyo, Jacarra Winchester of the USA.

Those are canceled.

on April 16, 2022, Camryn Rogers tied the NR in the hammer throw with 75.73 m

Reminder: Pan AM Wrestling Championships start tomorrow. Top 4 from each weight class qualify for Santiago 2023. It appears max one per nation per weight category, meaning countries that earned a slot cannot earn any more, however, if they don't send the 2021 Cali Champion, they lose their quota. Weird.
