Someone should inform them they are 25 years too late

name a team of 30 athletes for the Olympics. They also named 5 others in athletics who will be added if they get invitations from World Athletics via the world rankings prociess. Of these 5, only 3 are currently inside the quota places in the Road To Tokyo rankings (Gunta Vaičule in W 200m and Rolands Štrobinders in M Javelin are just outside the quotas currently). https://olimpiade.lv/lv/jaunumi/zinas/latvijas-komanda-olimpiskajas-speles-tokija-apstiprinati-30-sportisti-14-sporta-veidos-2079 https://olimpiade.lv/upload/content/30_sportisti_lok_ik_tokyo2020_komandas_prezentacija_medijiem.pdf Latvia - 30 (5 Athletics - 4 Basketball 3x3 - 4 Beach Volley - 1 Canoeing Sprint - 2 Cycling BMX Racing - 2 Cycling Road - 1 Equestrian - 1 Judo - 1 Karate - 1 Modern Pentathlon - 1 Shooting - 2 Swimming - 2 Tennis - 2 Weighlifting - 1 Wrestling)

I am waiting for @Sindo to enter the market so we can broadcast the Games from Totallympics 100 live streams

We should start a crowdfunding campaign…. “Raise funds for Totallympians to reach their dreams of watching hours of coverage of the Olympics”

I didn’t see Ireland mentioned but I thought for us is was going to be on Discovery+. I still don’t have certainty on whether it will be on the Eurosport player or Discovery in Ireland. I’ll probably end up subscribing to Discovery just to be sure

I wonder are they including Ireland in the United Kingdom?

Does anyone know what the parade of nations will look like? I mean will it just be the flag bearers alone for each nation?

Keep up the great work Ben

@Benolympique +1 in women’s artistic gymnastics https://olympics.ie/team-ireland-gymnasts-announced/ You probably haven’t updated the boxing European ranking qualifiers yet but just in case you have, Ireland has 7 boxers going to Tokyo.

Yes that’s the exact important detail I want to know

Swim Ireland have nominated Ellen Walshe along with the rest of the FINA A time qualifiers so that’s great news. Just waiting on the OFI to complete the selection process now

I have Eurosport player subscription for the year but I am not sure whether the streams are available in Ireland. It’s very confusing this time

Rhys McClenaghan will be in subdivision 1. Do you know in which rotation he will compete on pommel?

Why is it the worst subdivision?

QUALIFICATION UPDATE It's been a busy day of updates in terms of Olympic qualification with World Athletics revealing the list of athletes qualified to the Olympics by ranking, the IGF releasing the list of qualified women for the Olympic golf tournament and with the announcement of the Irish men's road cycling team. Starting with road cycling, Nicolas Roche, Dan Martin and Eddie Dunbar have been selected to represent the country in the men's road race with Roche going also in the men's individual time-trial. It will be Roche's 4th Olympic Games! However, in terms of new quotas, Ireland has earned 11 more quotas in athletics after the world rankings list was finalised overnight. Although this does not yet mean that Athletics Ireland or the Olympic Federation of Ireland will nominate all of those athletes, for the purposes of this tracker I am counting them as earned quotas at this moment in time. I will only count 10 additional quotas since Phil Healy will almost certainly take part in the mixed relay event. This brings the number of athletics qualifiers to 25 and puts athletics at the top of the table in terms of Irish qualifiers by sport for the Olympic Games. The IGF also revealed the list of women qualified to the Olympics after the qualifying period came to an end. Leona Maguire and Stephanie Meadow (26th and 38th respectively in the Olympic qualifying list) have both earned a quota place and both look set to represent Ireland at the Games for a second time! That means we now have secured 114 athlete quotas (59 men and 55 women) with representatives in 65 events, across 20 different sports.

Therefore, for the purposes of being as accurate as possible, I am only counting 3 new additional quotas to fill the relay squad.
