intoronto 4,200 Posted July 3, 2021 #1096 Share Posted July 3, 2021 Canada's team size stands at 371 athletes atm. Rugby +2 Water polo +1 Field hockey +2 Football +4 These sports alternates will count now (waiting for final confirmation). So that is 380 athletes right there. These can add to the team: -Men's hammer throw (Athletics) - Adam Keenan is the first reserve -Men's basketball (12 athletes) - Waiting for qualification tournament to end on Sunday -Laurence Vincent Lapointe is still waiting to hear if she can compete in canoeing -An appeal on the exclusion of the equestrian jumping team is still outstanding ? -There is an appeal currently regarding Jeremy Chartier's potential participation in Tokyo.

NearPup 2,156 Posted July 3, 2021 #1097 Share Posted July 3, 2021 I kind of think the “alternates count” in team sports should be a permanent change tbh. They can still travel at the cost of the NCO / not be hosted in the village, but not considering them Olympians and not allowing them to compete just to artificially lowering the number of athletes is just petty. intoronto 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are P athletes (alternates) in many other sports though. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like the current way P athletes work in individual sports make a lot more sense than in team sports. They are on site anyway, there is no reason to not let them substitute in and out.
