There are 3 periods of 6 months each. 

First period: 1-11-2018 to 30-4-2019

Second period: 1-5-2019 to 31-10-2019

Third period: 1-11-2019 to 30-4-2020

 

Every lifter trying to qualify must have one result from each period. The best score of each period is combined. They also add another score which is best of the rest in the 18 month period.

 

The athlete must participate in a minimum of 6 competition in this qualification period. They should have competed in gold level event and another gold or silver level event. ( The events are categorized as Gold, Silver and Bronze).

The athlete must have participated in atleast two events in Olympic categories.

Furthermore, top 8 athletes earn a quota place for every weight category. One country can have only one quota in one weight category. The next 5 quotas go to the lifters from five continents. The last quota is either for host or tripartite invitation.

Thanks a lot. So, Mirabai Chanu seems certain to qualify, very decent chance of a medal too at Tokyo.

 

Any other Indian currently in race for qualifying ?

New Swimming national records galore at South Asian games, multiple OSTs achieved, almost unreal. Perhaps the biggest news in the recent months.

The competition is being held in a 25m pool, so the times will not count for Olympic standards.

O Ok that's sad, thanks for the information, but I hope these count as NRs in short course.

Good is that Virdhawal did well. Hope he can go below 22.00s in 50m in 50m course and directly qualify for Olympics. 22.22s in 25m course is really good. Apeksha my friends relative aged only 13 is doing really well she should be nurtured well and surely she is the future of Indian sports in swimming.

Tokyo - 2020

Go India Go
