Croatian team for the home championships... There must be about 100 names in there. :p

As for the Olympic qualification, our best chances are definitely men's trap and women's 25 m pistol. Outside chances in some other events.

:yikes: Italy! :yikes:

 

it looks we have a good future ahead of us in this sport...

 

Italy won 3 of the 4 Air junior events contested today...

 

Danilo Dennis Sollazzo won the men's 10m Air Rifle, Federico Nilo Maldini won the men's 10m Air Pistol and Margherita Brigida Veccaro won the women's 10m Air Pistol...

 

the only gold medal not gone to an Italian shooter is the women's 10m Air rifle, which was won by :POL Julia Ewa Piotrowska...

You realize that:

a) Germany and I think also France didn’t compete?

b) Those events are usually dominated by non-European nations (mainly India, but also China/Iran/South Korea)?

 

I wouldn’t get too excited about those results, although it certainly is promising for Italy to brave done clearly better than Russia.

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

sure...

 

but...

 

a) FRA and GER are almost irrelevant...being ahead of the Eastern European nations (especially Russia and especially in the Pistol events) means being the best in Europe and it's something that basically never happens, so it's obvious that once we get there, it gives a huge boost to the whole movement...

 

b) let's start being the best in Europe...starting from this point, we can work to try and catch the Asian powehouses...

instead, being less than average even at continental level, it wouldn't leave any hope to be able to get close to the best in the world one day or the other (not that it will happen for sure, in any case...but at least now we have solid bases to build on)...

 

c) considering how few youngsters practicing the sport we have and how difficult is to access to the shooting sport (especially rifle and pistol), from any perspective we look at it, even with all the "minus" we have to take into consideration, this is a huge improvement by our team...we can't always count on mega-talents like Campriani to appear from nothing (and watching him leave the stage earlier than expected)...

I am really starting to get angry ...

Why the hell do you feel the need to constantly talk about topics you have no clue about?
 

At the 2020 European championships:

Womens 10 m air pistol: Gold for Vanessa Seeger from Germany.

 

Sure Germany is irrelevant, although for example the defending champion in women’s air pistol (who was 2 years younger than many/most of her competitors at that time) is from Germany ...

 

Usually I am able to ignore your insane fanboying, but please try to be at least remotely non-delusional.
