and it is official. Our roster for the World Championships has been announced.. and all three youngsters are there ! New World Record ladies & gentlemens. So far only one U17 player played a match at the WCh, Gasparini during Mussolini Italy (1939), no team had more than one U17 in their roster in all history. We will enter the tournament with three U18 kids 2 of them U17. Juraj Slafkovský & Šimon Nemec. Both eventual first rounders of next year NHL Draft.

Change in the schedule Due to the delay in the arrival of Ukrainian equipment, the match between Poland and Ukraine has been postponed to 22.45. The game will end around 1 AM

and hopefully

Varga DNF the cycling part, that is very likely the end of his dream for 3rd Olympics in a row.. One of the best (if not the best) swimmer in the Triathlon circuit. would be really sad to not having him at the Olympics

Czechoslovakia 2022

Thanks, that is really great. Hope they will progress and maybe make a huge nation Olympic debut in this sport in Paris. I know, Tokyo is highly unlikely, and I do not expect any miracle, but, just out of curiosity how many nations would have to decline for Bugan to qualify via reallocation ?

Do you have to qualify for participating here or there any other reason why our federation did not even bother to send one athlete to this regatta ? I know we would not stand a chance, but why we do not at least try is hard to understand for me. meh...

So, no polls ? As traditional single jury, I want vote "C"

Absolutely. +1 Here are the few new citizens I´ve heard about (Ice Hockey team) before the governement decided to stop that insane second-hand shopping around the world

South Korea was indeed working hard to prepare for the tournament, naturalizing 7-8 north americans and recruiting all famous players with korean ancestry like Jim Paek as coach. they had been showing a nice game for a few years before the tournament, they really tried to show that their host quota place was justified. they put a lot of money and will into it. I can not say a single bad word about them, even if now 2 years after, the whole work is gone, the popularity, interest and support of hockey totally evaporated there. But what is the most important. A year before the games they were a Division I A team which even qualified by merit to the Top division that year, in opposite China is struggling in far far lower divisions level

Chinese womens team is a Division I A-B regular team, certainly will lose all matches, but may pretty well be competitive in some matches and the scores should be more tight. The mens Chinese team HAS NOTHING TO DO there, there just does not belong there, with NHLer in the tournament They will not be able to shoot a single puck on goal during the whole tournament. Obviously I am not going to say 100-0 will be the score, but is definitely not famous for puting in down after scoring plenty of goals, they usually run the score as fuck ! would be not surprised to see something like SVK-BUL Womens massacre of 2009. lol, McDavid himself can score 20 goals against these unfortunates... in other hand is pretty famous of playing only the bare minimum against significantly weaker opponents, but still would destroy China by some 20 goals in safety mode. and not even going to speak about led by Draisaitl lol they stole this quota only thanks to the lobbying of their top officials. Li claimed to the IIHF that hockey is his favorite winter sport and he want both their teams to play in Beijing. Sadly, for him, the players themselves and the country reputation, nobody explained to him that this will turn on huge humiliation.

here, the vaccination process has finally accelerated. For two weeks now, everyone over the age of 16 can apply for vaccination in the so-called "waiting room", , but basically it gets more or less 2 weeks of waiting in that waiting room to be called and assigned a date for the vaccine. Even the state has launched various projects, e.g. "vaccinate your grandfather and grandmother", if a young boy/girl regiter and comes with their grandfather or grandmother, he/she is also vaccinated. it significantly helped to reconsider the attitude via the vaccination of the elderly people, because this group was unfortunately the most vaccination-skeptical in our country. or several mobile vaccination units that travels between remote villages and vaccinates immobile or elderly people.
