  1. The audience are screaming and whistling while athletes are shooting ..is it normal?
  2. and let's add to the country which can claim its first medal
  3. is she injured? I was surprised she is not playing ..and how she would qualify with out of team qualification now?
  4. nothing confirmed yet, Wikipedia is saying a diving cup between 18-30 of Nov without specifying the venue. a side note: 18th to 30th for 4 diving disciplines !!! ..the only way this date range is correct if China will participate ..as a whole nation
  5. you may need to update it again .. the official ranking just updated on the midnight to reflect the results from Madrid challenge event ..sorry for the bad news
  6. Absolutely right mate, I wasn't aware of the development of waterpolo and thanks for the clarification ... you have spotted a very good example (Canoe) ..this has a great potential and I am wondering why we are lacking in the main Olympics compared to paralympic success!! Sporting Giants scheme was a great one but my feeling it has been done as a preparation for London 2012 and there was lack of impetus to continue ..I think few Handball colleagues had been selected based on that scheme
  7. There are certain sports we are not competing in a high level and definitely can’t qualify for the Olympics, I have just prepared a quick list for sports which may/can/should be developed in the next years IMO: Handball: I put it first as this is my sport and I was playing for Reading Lions HC (unfortunately it has been dissolved after COVID), the sport has a huge potential in the country it also matches the British mentality which like both Football and Rugby (handball has goal scoring techniques like football and it’s physical contact sport close to rugby to some extent), England Handball Association had a very optimistic plan to get more youngers to the sport and myself went to schools and universities and picked up some great talented (very proud that the captain of U18 now I have picked him myself and was playing for our team before moving to Denmark now), the development of the sport had a huge delay during COVID and following Brexit specially when a lot of friends from different nationalities lost their jobs and return back home (our team dissolved for that reason), to conclude I think we have a lot of hidden talents can fit perfectly in this sport if we focus more to get youngsters on the field early. Volleyball and beach volleyball: despite the conventional volleyball is a nice sport to practice but from observation we are far away from achieving professional level, people are mostly practicing it in a friendly non-competitive way compared to handball. Saying that the beach volleyball is much easier to get to professional level, when we were playing the beach handball British championship at Poole each summer and just before COVID the tournament organisers added beach volleyball as a side activity for entertainment but it turned to be more competitive and interesting tournament gripped a lot of teams with great fun and quality, my suggestion is to start focus more on beach volleyball which can be adopted anywhere not just near the beaches. Basketball and 3X3 basketball: since London Olympics and the huge potential basketball got more and more development and we have qualified for Eurobasket in the last two editions (not great results I know) the team is on its way in my opinion suffering defeats from stronger teams but in a very competitive and close results most of the time (last edition wasn’t the greatest) I hope we keep it up for upcoming challenges. Looking at this huge potential in conventional basketball I would say 3X3 is a version we should focus more in future, it needs more fitness and physical efforts and a good selection of the team members then any country can compete in a higher level (with proper training of course) Those are the sports I hope they got developed more, would like to see if there are more in your opinions.
  8. very suspicious results ..as a fan of sports without any hard feelings towards any country I hope that is clean but really I doubt it
  9. one of the refree had a very bad Injury during hammer throw event, seems like he broke one of his legs when the hammer went wrong and hitted him hardly in a mmissed try from athlete ..hope he could recover soon
  10. defeated 3-2 in a thrilling contest after dominating the first two sets 25-14 & 25-10 !!! three consecutive sets to 25-23, 25-23 & 15-13 to claim a historical win and good boost for the race between them and as whom would be the best African team in ranking at the end of qualification period
  11. Hello Folks ..any live scoring website, I have some technical issues and can't watch any streaming now.
  12. This is a pure guess ..since the ranking has been updated to include Asian games results it means that the Africa / Oceania championship will not be counted towards the qualification ranking because of the number of entries or diversity of participating nations. note that: in Asian games men event Woongtae Jun claimed 60 points being the men champion while Mingyu Zhang (women champion) claimed only 40 points therefore I put my guess assuming the points depend on the entries.
  13. awarded 2025 African cup of nation (replacing which stripped the organisation rights due to lack of facilities and construction.) awarded 2027 version I believe the next announcement would be on Dec 2026 with a heading "2027 African cup of nation has been awarded to or or due to delays of facility readiness"
  14. Do you know if the OQTs are to be broadcasted on FIVB channel?
  15. is doing great in shooting recently, both youth and adults categories, I think you should get few medals in Paris with this consistency and high performance
  16. I am adding a prediction here that I guess (hope) three countries to be on the podium: 1- could be via shooting skeet men 2- mainly in 400 hurdles men 3- presumably Canoeing
  17. I should have asked first about the venue construction and completion before asking for this luxurious tools
  18. would be great to see African games organisers to adopt good live scoring website and tools similar to Asian games (which is similar to Tokyo 2020 website interface) last version of african games was mostly results tools (giving u the results after the events finish) and some times after the event by couple of hours! having live results would add a great boost to the game I hope.
  19. Feeling sad for Aiperi .. seems a harsh injury in her knee.. hopefully nothing serious
  20. Di Stasio is a big surprise for me I was expecting to see her on podium.. she even lost her repechage match so easily 🤷‍♂️
  21. Which Iranian channel broadcast the game please?
  22. for olympic qualifications events, the asian games is serving as a direct qualifier for the following: Archery Synchronised swimming Boxing Break dancing water polo Tennis Sailing Hockey Modern Pentathlon (I hope I didn't miss something) in addition there will be some events serve as indirect qualifications either by acheiving standard cut (athletics for example) or to add to ranking
