not many, I fear... but at least, those few hardcore fans now have a valid option (a few years ago, they didn't have any chance apart from some satellite piracy)...

ah, those wonderful times when 98% of gold medals were won by USA and Italy (not necessarily in this order)...

I guess if you are a true waterpolo, diving and open water swimming fan, it's worth the expense...they have really a lot of stuff (youth world champs, world cups, world league and so on)...

me, if it was the only option... however, it's to watch the entire event (and all the other fina stuff going on this month), not only the swimming races... by the way, as @Gianlu33 wrote, just go with Hola VPN and the Italian TV...spread around rai2 (at night) and Raisport+ HD (during the day), you won't miss anything (of course they only braodcast the Italian teams in Waterpolo in the preliminary stage, that's the only limitation)... another option for those who have a satellite dish, it's the world feed...but you need the proper hardware and "experience" to be able to take advantage of that...

naaa..they say it's only about the current Olympic team sports... so, I guess Korfball doesn't play a part in that...

I guess Field Hockey and Baseball/Softball (with the friendly cooperation of women's Waterpolo and Handball) would do most of the job...

be patient and you'll get it all...

KHL season's schedule: back to Europe, more derbies and a visit to Shenzen (CHN) On July 11 the KHL unveiled the game schedule for Season 12. The program has been drawn up with a view to balancing the best interests of the clubs, their fans, the league’s TV partners and the national teams of the countries involved in the KHL. The regular season: 744 games in 153 days The schedule was drawn up by a working party under the guidance of Sergei Kozlov, head of the department of sporting competitions, and expert Vladimir Zhidkov. Season 12 of the KHL begins on Sunday, Sep. 1, with the Opening Cup. This year’s curtain-raiser will be a repeat of last season’s Gagarin Cup final between defending champion CSKA Moscow and runner-up Avangard Omsk. The regular season runs until Feb. 27, 2020, a total of 153 game days. The playoffs are scheduled to start on March 1 and, if required, game seven of the grand final will be played on April 30. Due to the change in the number of teams competing in this season’s KHL, and in the interests of sporting balance, the KHL has changed the members of each division. Torpedo returns to the Western Conference and joins the Tarasov Division. Its place in the Kharlamov Division will go to Sibir. Each of the 24 clubs will play 62 games in the regular season. All clubs will play each other home and away (46 games). Within each division, each club will meet two more times (an additional 10 games). Each team will also play four games with three opponents from the other division in its conference (an additional 6 games, making 62 in total). In total, there will be 744 games in the regular season. In accordance with the wishes of both fans and TV companies, most game days will feature action in both the Eastern and Western Conferences. The KHL has managed to meet almost all the wishes of the clubs, including arranging big games on key dates for each team (eg the anniversary of the foundation of the club or its city, New Year holidays, etc). Last season’s experiment of scheduling playoff games in the East and West on the same day was a success and will continue in 2019/20. This format made it easier for fans to follow the progress of both conferences and enabled more games to be shown live on federal TV and KHL TV. Throughout the playoffs, team will play every second day. To fit in with the international calendar drawn up by the IIHF, the KHL schedule includes pauses for the various stages of the Euro Hockey Tour. These will be on Nov. 5-10 (in Finland), Dec. 10-15 (in Russia) and Feb. 4-9 (in Sweden). As usual, there will be a pause for the Week of Hockey Stars in Moscow (Jan. 11-19) and a short New Year holiday (Dec. 31 to Jan. 2). Derby days: the big rivals will meet six times The schedule for 2019/20 has a few new features. The make-up of the divisions has changed and now all four divisions will play with six teams. We’ve also upped the number of big games, with the top rivals facing off six times over the course of the season (such as the CSKA vs SKA Army Derby or the Ak Bars vs Salavat Yulaev Green Derby). This year’s schedule is also the most even in terms of the spread of games per day (4.89 on average). Over the course of a 62-game campaign, teams will typically play 10-12 games each month and not more than 13 (with the exception of Traktor, which plays 14 games in one month). This means, unlike previous years, there is no noticeable ‘front-loading’ of games in September and October. For the most part, road trips will not be longer than three games (with a few exceptions early in the season for Kunlun Red Star and Traktor). New destinations – Davos, Almaty and Shenzhen After the success of recent seasons, the KHL is continuing to put games on tour. Under the KHL World Games banner, Salavat Yulaev will play a home game against Ak Bars in Davos, Switzerland, on Dec. 23. In addition to the World Games, the KHL will go to Almaty, Kazakhstan, for the first time. On Sep. 17 and 20 Barys will go to Kazakhstan’s second city to host Spartak and Traktor. This forms part of the KHL’s on-going strategy to develop hockey in more and more cities across Eurasia. The Chinese city of Shenzhen is another new destination for the KHL. At the start of the season, Kunlun Red Star will play six games here (two each against Salavat Yulaev, Traktor and Neftekhimik). In January, Jokerit will continue its popular series of visits to Tallinn. The Estonian capital will welcome the KHL for the third time; this season sees Jokerit playing back-to-back games against Severstal. The playoff structure is largely unchanged from last season. For the convenience of supporters, the first two rounds of post-season will see action from both conferences on each game day. This avoids a glut of games all starting at the same time and makes it easier for fans to follow all the action in real time as the playoffs unfold. Georgy Kobylyansky, KHL Vice-President of Sporting Operations: "Over 11 previous seasons the KHL has accumulated a wealth of experience in drawing up a successful schedule, keeping in mind that every campaign brings its own challenges and requirements. As a result, every year means starting afresh, trying to balance the wishes of all our stakeholders: clubs, national teams and, first and foremost, the fans. Our principle aim is to ensure that it is as easy as possible for everybody to get to see their favorite teams in action, and to ensure that a trip to the hockey brings only positive emotions. I hope that the schedule for the 2019/20 season is convenient and well-balanced for all concerned and I’m looking forward to seeing you all at the hockey".

Last Ranking Series tournament for men's Freestyle and women's Wrestling before the World Champs, the Yasar Dogu in Istanbul (TUR)... to be honest, not many names to be remembered on the mat... Day #1 Finalists: Women's Wrestling -50kg: Valeriya CHEPSARAKOVA vs Seema SEEMA -55kg: Zulfiya YAKHYAROVA vs Bediha GUN -59kg: Kumari MANJU vs Katsiaryna HANCHAR YANUSHKEVICH -65kg: Forrest Ann MOLINARI vs Natalia FEDOSEEVA Men's Freestyle -57kg: Baris KAYA vs Givi DAVIDOVI -61kg: Rahul Balasaheb AWARE vs Munir Recep AKTAS -70kg: Murtazali MUSLIMOV vs Mihail Iliev GEORGIEV unbelievable day for our Givi Davidovi...first, he won a crazy match against Giorgi Edisherashvili (after a 10-10 tie on the mat) in the first round, then in the semifinal match he was 8-1 down against Mikyay Salim Naim with only 40 seconds still to play and finally he found some magic to comeback and win the bout by a score of 9-8... unfortunately, even a win in tomorrow's final won't give him enough points to sneak in into the top 4 of the -57kg class ranking before the Worlds, so to have an easier draw in the early rounds... still, it would be a prestigious win and a huge boost just ahead of the big event of the year...

CWC 2019, Final Sunday, July 14th, h.11.30 a.m. CET (Lord's, London), England vs New Zealand

after being in danger of missing the semifinals for quite a while during the round robin, England finally not only made it through to the top 4, but today they even upset the reigning champions Australia and so they earned a spot in Sunday's Final... it will be the 4th attempt for them to win the CWC, as they never won their 3 previous finals in which they appeared (1979, 1987, 1992)... Today Australia had a poor day both batting and bowling...and England's victory was never in doubt... In the first inning the Aussies were bowled out in 49 overs, scoring only 223 runs, then England took control of their batting session from the beginning, hitting Fours and Sixes one after the other, meanwhile the Australian bowlers couldn't make any wicket fall... in the end, it was quite a one-sided and disappointing match, with the only positive aspect being the fact that by the end of the week we will have a newcomer in the winners' list of the CWC, as both ENG and NZL have never won the tournament before... final score, England (226 / 2 in 31.2 overs) win by 8 wickets over Australia (223 / all out in 49 overs)
