jusarrived Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 the difference up till now is only Shooting , in which we have been shockingly poor ...we had better shooters than 2006 , with few of them coming in as favs & current world champs . otherwise we have done or should do better in most other sports .

bharathh Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 I think all Indian sports should be structured like the way the Indian Boxing Fed has been over the past few years. They have been outstanding and the results are showing clearly. Hopefully the new Supreme Court verdict about kicking out the bloody oldies who are minting money by keeping us in mediocrity helps.

kabira Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 I think we have great potential in boxing. The boxers have been doing great and we seem to have great structure for it. WE need to pour more money in boxing, give this boxers central contract etc...like cricket.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bharathh Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 I think the Boxing Fed has been doing things like giving out central contracts. They have also been great at getting sponsorships for their boxers and attracting some of the best coaching talent to India. A huge kudos to the current admin of the boxing fed. We need to target high medal yielding sports and make sure we get our talent up to spec. Shooters have been a big let down. They should have a few golds. I guess due to CWG they're off color. Most have done great throughout the season. We do have a few world champs in the shooting team. Our weightlifters have been a big let down as well. But I suppose, given the competition, they didn't have much of a chance. We should have a couple of medals in Chess - but Anand and Humpi pulled out. They would have been sure shots to win medals. I'm sure they'll do well at the Olympics. Boxing and Shooting (hopefully wrestling) will be India's big hopes at the Olympics. We really need to improve at Track & Field and Swimming to make any impact on the medals tally in multi-sports events like this. But T&F and Swimming need to be overhauled completely and we can't expect anything from them until perhaps the 20s (if we start now). I'm quite disappointed with our tally position, especially coming off the high of CWG - but I suppose it's good to come down to earth again.

They would have been sure shots to win medals. yeah. current world champion Anand and No. 2 female player Humpi(after judit polgar) were almost certainties for 3 golds (in individual and team events) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
