Paris Olympics 2024: India expects more athletes to qualify
Qualification process for Paris 2024
The Paris 2024 Olympic Games will take place from 26 July to 11 August 2024. Athletes will be able to qualify for the Games in two ways. The first way is by achieving the entry standard for an event within the qualification period. The entry standards are set by World Athletics and are based on the performance levels of the top athletes in the world. The second way to qualify is by being ranked among the top athletes in the world in their event. The top athletes in each event will be ranked based on their performances in the qualification period. The qualification period for the Paris 2024 Games will run from 1 May 2023 to 30 June 2024.
Indian athletes' chances of qualifying for Paris 2024
India has a strong tradition of athletics, and Indian athletes have won a number of medals at the Olympic Games. At the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, India won a total of seven medals, including one gold, two silver, and four bronze. This was India's best performance at the Olympics since 1984. India will be hoping to build on this success at the Paris 2024 Olympics. The Indian Athletics Federation (AFI) has set a target of winning 10 medals at the Paris 2024 Games. This would be a significant increase from the seven medals that India won in Tokyo. The AFI is confident that India has the potential to achieve this target, and it is working hard to prepare its athletes for the Games.
Challenges facing Indian athletes
There are a number of challenges that Indian athletes face in their quest to qualify for the Paris 2024 Olympics. One of the biggest challenges is the lack of world-class training facilities. Many Indian athletes do not have access to the same level of training facilities as athletes from other countries. This can make it difficult for Indian athletes to compete at the highest level. Another challenge is the lack of financial support. Many Indian athletes come from poor backgrounds, and they do not have the financial resources to support their training. This can make it difficult for Indian athletes to travel to international competitions, where they can gain valuable experience. Despite these challenges, Indian athletes are determined to succeed at the Paris 2024 Olympics. They are working hard to overcome the challenges that they face, and they are confident that they can achieve their goals.
