The best of times, but with the covid situation at the moment, there s a lot of complexity in terms of the planning event and events to take place. we were one of the sports that was affected. so from our personal perspective, it s been quite challenging. our athletic group has been working throughout a significant amount of time. we re obviously really disappointed that we might be there. but, yeah, it s quite challenging to be able to coordinate. from our perspective, the national federation was faced with challenges in terms of putting the qualification events on. disappointing from our end from baseball s perspective and working with the australian olympic committee, they ve been fantastic in terms of coordinating our team and preparing our team in the event we qualified. it s incredibly disappointing. for that, we re so sorry, glenn, but we certainly appreciate you joining us from sydney this morning this evening, thank

With the International Olympic Committee deciding to scrap the Olympic world qualifiers for boxing because of the challenges posed by the global Covid-19 restrictions, India is unlikely to add to the unprecedented nine who have made the cut for the Tokyo Games in July-August, reported PTI.
The final global boxing qualifier for the Tokyo Olympics is being scrapped, the Japan Boxing Federation said Tuesday, with places at this summer’s pandemic-delayed Games likely to be determined by rankings.
The qualifier was due to take place in Paris in June, but coronavirus travel restrictions and the rescheduling of the final European qualifier from April to June have forced organisers to pull the plug, AFP reported.
Men s U19 World Floorball Championships 2021 Qualifications cancelled 01/14/21
The IFF ExCo last night took the decision to cancel the remaining Men’s U19 WFC 2021 Qualification events in Europe and the Americas, due to the continuing Covid-19 crisis.
After months of discussions with the organisers and participating teams, including several postponements, all the qualifications have now been cancelled.
In Europe, both organisers (Italy and Poland) had worked very hard to secure the possibility to safely proceed with organising the events, however there remained a high level of doubt about the participation of the teams. Five teams advised that they definitely could not participate, and all others indicated some amount of hesitation, whether to do with long-term restrictions on Floorball activities within their own countries, safety during the event, or to do with possible quarantine/testing requirements, especially on the return to their home countries after the event.
