Ato,

I have a question related to T&F scheduling in general.

has there ever been any consideration of making the T&F part of the Olympics longer?  Why is it sometimes possible for people to double in the 200 & 400 and in other years it isn't?  Is it that they don't want to share the spotlight with swimming?

it seems as though it is already more difficult for track athletes to compete in multiple events in comparison to aquatics and gymastics for example.

Heello Ato,
                I know this is T&F thread.   How come TT cycling did not send anybody this year. I thought Ibrahim was going since he got a silver in the PANAm games. And then the track cyclist won some medals at the hemispere championship in S. America recently

Title: Re: REAL TIME BEIJING SCHEDULE
Post by: A.B. on August 01, 2008, 05:18:15 PM

Track doesn't usually favor a 200 - 400 double, remember MJ petitioned them for that in 1996 - it isnt possible this year or Sanya Richards and Allyson Felix would have attempted it for sure.

Cycling? Mih pardna is Phillips who is now prez of d cycling federation but I really dunno.

T&T Cycling misses out on Olympics
BY MICHAEL PHILLIPS

For every athlete the Olympics is the ultimate focal point. The dream of being an Olympian or stepping foot on the podium to receive a medal and hearing ones national anthem play is a vision that is replayed over and over in an athlete’s head.

The question that I have been getting regularly from cycling fans is one regarding the obvious absence of any of our national cyclists at this year’s Begin Games.  The simple answer is that it has become far more complicated and expensive to get to the Olympics.  It used to be that the local Olympic committee set a qualification standard for all sports and athletes would have to attain these standards by a designated time.

If more than one athlete did the standard and there was an allowance of only one per country in the event, there would usually be a trial to select the best. In a worst case scenario politics or favouritism would play, but that is another

article. 

The thing is that those standards could have been done at home and they were a lot more lenient than today.  The process started to change after the Barcelona Olympics in 1992 where the first professionals were allowed to compete at those games.  World politics was evolving and that too had its impact on the games for example,  no longer was  East and West Germany competing under separate flags.  The Union Cycliste International (UCI) the governing body for cycling informed its affiliates that they would have to qualify for the 1996 Atlanta Games at the World Championships the year before and the spots were limited for the first time. 

Most events allowed 24 cyclists with one or two per country.  The 1995 World Championships in Bogota Colombia remain today the largest attendance ever for a world championship event.  Many records were broken and as well many were disappointed. 

This also represented the last time that T&T had a cyclist participate at the Games, that cyclist being Gene Samuel who qualified for his pet event the 1KM time trial.  The qualification for the Sydney Olympics became even more challenging as UCI now expected cyclists to qualify for the World Championships through five World Cup events held in different parts of the world. Only the top eighteen would qualify for the championships from those World Cups with only the top ten in each event getting points to determine ranking.

This is where it started getting very expensive because if you could not attend all of the World Cups you better get good points in the ones you could attend. The fun did not stop there.  Finally to qualify for the Olympics you had to be in the top four of your event or be in one of the top sixteen team sprint teams (The team sprint is like the 4x100meter relays except you have three riders) in the championships. Each of the cyclists on the team would then be eligible to ride one individual event.  I hope I have not lost you.  This meant if you were the fifth to eighteenth fastest at the world Championships - “no Olympics”.

This also meant that that the greater chance for the any country to qualify for the event was through the team events.  I had the agonizing experience of being in the fifth to eighteenth group without having a team or even another Trinidadian qualify for the championships. I did like the old people say and chalked it up to experience. 

The news gets worse. Since then the qualification process has become even tougher and now there are fewer countries qualifying for Olympic cycling. It is not only the process that has become extremely challenging but the advancement in training and the standard facilities around the world have clearly defined a line between eras.  The future for young aspiring T&T cyclists and their Olympic dreams may seem more farfetched than a realistic goal at this time.

However,  I am an eternal optimist with a roll up your sleeves and change things attitude.  My disappointments had inspired me at a young age to get involved in a meaningful way to prove the value of this sport.  The road continues to be a challenging one with many details still to be sorted and structure to be applied from the perspective of the Trinidad and Tobago Cycling Federation. There is evidence of hope in the young riders that being developed at this time and the fact that T&T cyclists have won a record seven medals at the Pan American  Championships this year. 

I would like to say to cyclists like Chris Sellier and the other young cyclists to keep focusing on your goals, learn from every victory and every disappointment and whatever the outcome hold true to the spirit of sportsmanship and the spirit of the Olympics.

No prob bro. Soon as I saw it I remember somebody asking bout it and I myself was curious

I really hope the Government and Corporate Trinidad and Tobago get together and fix this. It is unbelievable to me that a nation that has produced, Gibbon, Atherly, Samuel, the Kellars, Emile Abraham doesn't see it worthwhile to invest in cycling. The fact that we have a yute that won a World Title this year and he home watching de games with me and you is totally unacceptable.
I does really wonder bout we leaders sometimes....why can't we invest more in sports so we wouldn't have to be buying BLIMPS and other sorts of rubbish. Imagine our first three Olympic medals was in Weightlifting and we have nobody going Olympics in that. We've had at least three World Boxing Champions yet nobody qualified in that sport in 2008. Bovell win a medal four years ago and up to now dey cyar complete de facility in his honour. Imagine Tobago doh have ONE single 25m pool for athletes to train!

I dunno how other people see it but I believe if we invest and create opportunities for our young people we would be keeping daily track of medals on the front page of newspapers instead of the murder rate.

Funding should not be the reason our talented cyclists are watching the Games on TV with the money this country have now. >:(

Flash,
            I agree with most of what you said. It is pity the private sector and gov't can't get together to build an maintain these failities which is clearly beneficial for the nation's sports men. I see Duprey investing a lot of money overseas. All good and well. But you mean to say that he and Manning can't get together to do this for the benefit of the youths of TT. Only when Cuba, JA and Bahamas rake in medals, is then all the wagonnist become all hot and sweaty and complain. Are'nt supposed to be honesting the Mannings(Caribbean games) next year?

First the Good News

All our guys advanced and looked like they had a lot in reserve

Now the potentially Bad News

Those miscalculations by Marc and Darrel may cost them in the form of stacked quarterfinals tommorow morning which means they'll have to run harder than they probably want

I hope Darrel and Marc come out a lot more focused. I like the way Thompson "felt" his race and advanced first without too much stress

WHEW! Much favourable draw than I expected from our guys

Burns should win that QF. Darrel need only worry about Frater and Martina. He must finish top two...beat at least one of them to get a nice Semi Final Draw. Thompson's only test should be Gay...I think he should handle Fasuba.  If I'm him I make Tyson go faster than he wants to and test that hammy.
If all three don't advance I'll be quite disappointed

Dix was a lean from being out of the 100m - 4th place in his heat didn't make it I dunno what some of these men are thinking.....who is the last olympic champ to get 3rd in his 1st round heat???

EXACTLY.

Steups. People better wake up, oui.

I glad plenty of you all getting a sprint education early in this games....there is a HUGE gap in this 100m field....
Tyson ent lasting 4 rounds.

I really sat there thinking maybe is my generation that did too much of this shutting down trying to make style thing (and this was a clear influence on these men) but we used to be 10m ahead - I dont understand how u shutting down and u ent controlling the race yet. ???

I damn vex. Men either will WAKE UP tonight in round 2 or they will be out. Simple as that. This ent no joke goin on here....

Burns will have to run all out to make, because it will be WAR between him Frater, Dix, Obikewlu and Atkins for the final 2 spots.

i ent worried about burns beating frater and dix, burns if anything will get 2nd or 3rd in his heat but it will be a fast heat, dont be surprised to see someone run a 9.8 in this race

thompson is smooth sailing once again, i looking for him to win this heat easy

Why do you have to make a comment like that?

But I guess my depth of fandom is exceptionally shallow.

LoL

You are in the 1 or 2 others.

The startlist was NEVER issued. It was not on the IOC site and the IAAF site. The IAAF rules are clear and it was posted by several people on line.

Where was the outrage when 3 nat'ls were in one SF. That is UNPRECEDENTED and informed fans of "tracks" know this. Tracks is slang for the track portion of Track and Field.

Watch!

The man just run 9.82s in 0 wind 2 weeks ago, so unless he injured or RT is ready to PB, he aint beating AP.

RT looking like a good prospect for Bronze though.

Trackshark, the yankee site had it bandied about and rumour that NBC had it too.

As I said, they separate Nat's as much as possible till the final! I mean, think about it, it would be prejudicial otherwise.

Well, the day has arrived! I am no way saying that anyone should have the "get to the final and see what happens" attitude, but I want to say how proud I am of Burns and Thompson regardless of how they do today. Burns, for overcoming recent indifferent form (his PB in 2007 was 10.15  :o) and Thompson for achieving so much so early in his career. While I spare a thought for Darrel and his bad luck with injuries, my thoughts today are with Marc and Richard, and I wish them all the best.  :beermug:

What a silly statement u made here. U saw Asafa n the quarter final and started making assessments \. Chill out Boss. This olympics is Usain vs. Asafa. Unnuh can battle for the bronze medal but only something out of the ordinary would prevent our one-two.

Put all fun and jokes aside. Seriosly, if Asafa puts his all in it, you think Thompson can beat him? Did you see how early Asafa shut down just now in the semi. Thompson can just hope that 'Safa panics like he did last year in the World Champs final.

No one is GLAD he dissed the T&T program, we are merely pointing out that the system is so piss poor in T&T that he made a choice that was best ofr him.

I never cuss anyone for choosing the US or Canada over T&T!

I cuss dem if dey refuse we offer and den when we advancing dey want to come running and looking for pick!
