time for a little update

 

because of new rules in Iran. people who are "retired" can't work anymore in government-related jobs. and what's a government-related job ?! any kind of organization that gets financial help from the government. by this definition all sports federation in Iran will be applied to this rule. they excuted this few days and this made a chaos in the whole system. so many had to leave their jobs which means right now so many sports federations in Iran are without a president or general secretary etc. but the problem is some international federations considering it "government intervention" and they are investigating this. some "suspensions" are quite possible now. in Iran they only let the "football federation president" to keep his job mostly because they know FIFA is no joke and the guy in head of the federation found a way to stay in his position (at least for now) on a technicality. still some of his stuffs had to resign. which means AFC/FIFA still will investigate this. some people here expect us to receive "suspension letter" from FIFA in next few days right before the AFC Asian Cup. :(

 

I think right now more than 10 federations are without president here. Handball, Volleyball. Judo. Rowing/Canoeing, Karate, Triathlon plus few more I can't remember now beside them I can add wrestling and Hockey to the list for different reasons. some of them just resigned earlier to not make a mess but some of them (specially volleyball guy) didn't let it go without a fight. he left it in the very last day not before informing FIVB. he was TERRIBLE in his job in 11 months of his job. we will see if FIVB takes action but even FIVB probably knows he was such a jerk and maybe they let it go. while it was a positive change in Volleyball, I can't say the same about other sports, specially Judo and Karate.

But wait, if you're president of a federation, that means you have a job and are by definition not retired, or am I missing something?

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! Full story and how to help can be found here!

That's the point, this new law (which already existed but they enforced it) is barring the employment of retirees in government, state or public institutions which use state funds or facilities.

Only 4 changes comparing to the World Cup squad. Ghafouri, Kanaanizadegan, Nourollahi and the reserve GK Niazmand. we are missing some injured players, two of them are key players, Ali Gholizadeh (Charleroi) and Saeid Ezzatollahi (Reading). we had high hope on Gholizadeh, I would replace anybody else in the squad with him :( Ezzatollahi was also important player , his replacement Ali Karimi (Esteghlal) also got injured and missed the tournament. another injured player is Kaveh Rezaei (Brugge) even though I'm not sure if he would make the final squad. Queiroz doesn't believe much in him.

Today we had the last round of the trials to select our Taekwondo team for the World Championship in UK, which was very important because this is the main even to collect points for the World Ranking and the Olympic qualification. we had Fajr Cup and WTF President Cup (G2) both of them in Kish Island couple weeks ago and after that coaches selected 5 members of the team. we had trials today for 3 more weights. here is the team

 

54: Armin Hadipour

58: Mohammad Hassan Palangafkan

63: Soroush Ahmadi

68: Mirhashem Hosseini

74: Amir Mohammad Bakhshi

80: Mehran Barkhordari

87: Erfan Nazemi

+87: Sajjad Mardani

 

Hadipour, Mardani, Hosseini and Ahmadi were selected because of winning the WTF President Cup, they also sent Bakhshi (Asian Games silver medalist) to 74kg after he lost to Hosseini (beat him later in Fajr Cup two days later) to have both of them in the team. important note that Mardani beat Asian Games Champion Saeid Rajabi twice (in Fajr Cup final and President Cup final) to make the team.

 

but we had trials in other 3 weights today. we were supposed to have Ashourzadeh, Kazemi and Palangafkan competing for the 58kg spot but Kazemi (World GP medalist) withdrew and surprisingly former World Champion Ashourzadeh lost twice to youngster Palangafkan and will miss the World Championship. I think it's fair to say he also missed his chance for the Olympics as well :( which is really sad, 4 years ago at this time he was destroying everybody while he was 18-19.

 

at 80kg after Khodabakhshi's problems (not committing to the training etc) we had two youngsters competing for the spot. 17 years old Barkhordari beat Erfan Nazemi and won the NT place. we were supposed to have Saeid Rajabi (AG Champion in +87kg) competing for the spot but he withdrew claiming he has to cut too much for that weight. the other guy in this weight didn't satisfy the coach. so they told Erfan Nazemi (who lost 80kg trial before) to have another trial which he won and made the team one weight up. the original decision was to not send anybody at 87kg (cuz Iran is very weak here) but they finally decided to give the chance to Nazemi.

 

by selecting this team Iran officially gave up trying for the Olympic quota at 80kg, without Ashourzadeh, now Hadipour is our only chance to qualify at 58kg, Mirhashem Hosseini is also probably our only chance for 68kg (since they sent Bakhshi to 74kg) and of course now without Rajabi there is only one man for +80kg which is Mardani. the rest of the team are very young and very low in the ranking and even if they win the World Championship they can't collect enough points for the Olympic qualification.

the last time I updated this thread was 2 years ago :d

 

OK time for a little Olympic-related information

 

while everything is frozen here because of the new year holidays we had our Olympic trials in freestyle wrestling 2 weeks ago. that was only in 2 weights for some weird reasons and these guys secured their place in the Olympic team. no surprise since they both won the quota in Kazakhstan as well.

 

57: Reza Atri

86: Hassan Yazdani

 

this is the 86kg trial match, where the Olympic Champion Yazdani beat World U23 Champion Kamran Ghasempour 5-2. the last time they faced (in 2019), more than 12,000 came to the stadium to watch them wrestle. this time it had to be in an empty hall :cry:

برای من فرقی نمیکنه، سوالی به فارسی باشه فارسی جواب میدم، انگلیسی باشه هم انگلیسی. اون مزیت خودش رو داره که دیگران هم متوجه میشن

قبلا کاربرهایی بودن اما همین الان فکر نمیکنم کسی فعال باشه.

درمورد سوال هم، تا چند روز دیگه کلا مسابقات انتخابی تموم میشه اما یکی دو هفته‌ای باید با کشورها نامه نگاری کنن تا هر کدوم سهمیه هاشون رو قطعی کنن. شاید حداکثر 20 روز طول بکشه. البته تکلیف ایران مشخصه. علی داوودی که حتما هست، بین علی هاشمی و علی میری (یا شاید حتی ایوب موسوی) باید یک نفر رو انتخاب کنن. مرادی و رستمی دیگه شانسی ندارن

این نفرات خیلی شانسی برای مدال ندارن، درسته؟

داوودی شانسی برای نقره یا برنز داره؟
