Fly_like_a_don 866 Posted May 31, 2021 #1962 Share Posted May 31, 2021 I like the Australian team, everything quick, be it reaching Tokyo, unveling Olympic kits, opening ceremony uniforms or anything else. Meanwhile the lowest recorded case in Japan since 19th April. Very likely more teams will follow soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're clearly wrong, I read it here that they confirmed their withdrawal at least 10 times Agger, MHSN and pdr4332 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fly_like_a_don 866 Posted June 1, 2021 #1968 Share Posted June 1, 2021 Interestingly we are looking at a scenario where a large part of Australian contingent will be in Japan well before the games. Towns that cancelled welcoming athletes were hosting sporting contingents of South Asia, France, Kenya, South Africa ,Lesotho etc acc to NHK. The town hosting some Poland athletes wanted hard quarantine before they train which is not feasible. So basically your country's covid handling throughout the pandemic and the local government will decide if you can train in Japan. I'm sure there will be discussions with the towns asking for a relaxation but I don't know how many of them will be successful. As of now it's Advantage Australia!

Orangehair43 169 Posted June 1, 2021 #1969 Share Posted June 1, 2021 I presume it’s mostly the outdoor team sports that arrive in Japan a long time before so they can get used to the conditions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
