Back for the evening session

She looked like she already recovered too by the time the camera focused on her at the end of the race

So who's watching the European Championships or am I the only one?

Thanks. Italy back with the big boys

Who else got promoted besides Slovenia?? Two go up, two go down?

Hopefully we will share in some success next time buddy rather than disaster.

Very sad moment for our sport, first time in our history we will not be represented in canoe slalom at the Olympics. We were represented in men's canoe slalom in every Olympics and almost always in women's too.....now, absolutely no representation at all, and not even close. Pathetic really, you would swear we have no natural resources in this country to develop good canoe slalom courses and programmes..... but of course we have no facilities.... absolutely pathetic

I can take field hockey if it is going uncared for

I'm not sure yet if Sindo wants one thread for team sports or two separate threads. Also, I think it would be a good idea to consider multiple caretakers of the sports with a large number of events, swimming and athletics especially. This would reduce the burden on users posting results during the Olympics as we all want to spend those days watching as much of the sports as possible and not having to prepare results. That is the reason I want to create results templates in advance for every event. So it might be a good idea to allow a few users nominate themselves for any given sport and allow them to manage it jointly.... maybe one can commit to post results for that sport on day 1, another user on day 2 and so on. That would make it more enjoyable and less burdensome. @hckosice Thanks for your nice comments, I do my best

The O'Donovan brothers won gold I have no idea how strong this regatta was though

I contacted the Olympic Council of Ireland and they informed me that the Irish team sponsor, New Balance, will launch the uniforms and Games sportswear in the first week of June or thereabouts.... they will send more details in advance.

Thank you

Any entry lists for the 1st Olympic qualifying tournament in Mongolia?

Wanderer chose Seychelles and Cook Islands I think.

Wonderful concept I would like to choose Cote d'Ivoire... I thought maybe it would be a nice idea since they share the Irish colours (only in reverse). Mauritius and Iceland too as reserves!

Silver for Kieran Behan on floor!
