I presume (hope) there should be an easy process route for athletes to participate in such big events, I keep hearing that the visa issue could restrict supporters only not athletes (still not fair but at least good to see high level athletes participating)

Do we know how the process would work in Squash qualification?, for example Makin & El-Shorbagy brothers do they need to participate under team GB flag or they can still play under the country flag but they will qualify as part of team GB?

I am happy for them but waiting the draw to tell who will be the world cup top scorer this time

Qualified to the final round after dramatic victory in +90 against 2-1

2 days now without changing the body weights again ...very boring

I also have the same suspicion on Lopez

Full article and new IWF body weight here: https://iwf.sport/2025/11/03/bodyweight-categories-for-the-2028-olympics-in-los-angeles-are-defined/

Body weight for LA 28 announced: MEN: 65kg, 75kg, 85kg, 95kg, 110kg, +110kg WOMEN: 53kg, 61kg, 69kg, 77kg, 86kg, +86kg

one of the weakest tournaments and prefer not see such format and rules again. Champion Runner-up 3rd some silly rules applied in this tournament: - using smaller size ball - no glue (means no spin shots) - no empty goal rule - change only when you are attacking presumably they applied those rules to show audience how silly they are.

I am happy he didn’t get the total medal I remember he did the the same during WCH before Olympics Someone should look for a solution to stop this nonsense

Let them agree first what would be the IWF weight categories ..as it may change again ... endless loop.

it's not exactly the correct thread WCH U 17 first edition will be held this month, but the format and participants are very strange: - only 12 teams! - why 3 teams from Africa and 3 from Asia while Europe are just 2 It maybe just a trial version but I presume it will be very weak and could kill the idea. My expectation that the title will be between

It’s not great for the athletes but I presume that change to align with IOC decision to have 6 weight categories in LA28. by the way, is Khaled life ban removed?

I watched the game on IWF facebook page win the first gold
