hckošice 13,217 Posted June 12, 2018 #2 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Zero, very likely..but there a slim chance for Jessica Triebeľová in Boxing, the girl is 3 years undefeated in Europe, but you know..Boxing, so it depend on which nation you´ll be drawn, if she´ll be lucky and avoid one of the protected nations a semifinals bronze is possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intoronto 4,202 Posted June 12, 2018 #3 Share Posted June 12, 2018 I honestly do not know. Most of Canada's sporting organizations do not care about the event and usually send b teams (sometimes A). I want to estimate anywhere from 6-10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heywoodu 13,540 Posted June 12, 2018 #5 Share Posted June 12, 2018 I have absolutely no idea, I don't follow the international youth competitions of every sport closely, which already makes it impossible to really have a somewhat realistic idea If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

thiago_simoes 1,359 Posted June 12, 2018 #6 Share Posted June 12, 2018 8-10 being very optimistic, but I believe that in the end we'll get 4-6. Not sure about our judo and swimming team, but our gymnasts are not nearly as strong as they were in 2010 (Arthur Nory, who didn't get a medal at the YOG but earned a bronze medal at the 2016 Olympics) or 2014 (Flávia Saraiva, 1 gold medal and 2 silver medals).

Fly_like_a_don 928 Posted June 12, 2018 Author #8 Share Posted June 12, 2018 It's a bit surprising that many countries like or even don't have a proper idea of their youth athletes. May be as things get more clear within a month with all qualifiers we could expect Joshmaartini007 to predict a medal tally for the games Olympian1010 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
