John Coates Says ‘Nothing Can Stop Olympics From Going Ahead’

by Leave a Comment

The International Olympics Committee vice president John Coates on Saturday said that nothing can stop the Tokyo Olympics from going ahead. This statement was made despite the rise in coronavirus cases globally. John Coates while speaking to AFP seemed confident about the Olympics starting on 23rd July 2021.

When asked by AFP if chances of Games starting in July could be postponed or canceled, he replied: No, there’s not.

“The prime minister of Japan said that to the president of the United States two or three weeks ago, he continues to say that to the IOC. We’re working with him (Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga) on all of the safety measures. It’s going ahead”

A few weeks back, Suga had visited the United States and had a brief meeting with Biden over the Olympics situation. Suga had reiterated that Japan was taking all precautions to contain the spread of the virus and was ready to host the safe and secure Olympics.

Pfizer and BioNtech Vaccine Deal Major Step According to John Coates

While talking to the media on Saturday, John Coates also mentioned the measures and plan the organizing team was preparing for. 

We spent the first half of last year identifying all the worst-case scenarios. We spent the next six months looking at the countermeasures that are necessary. We’re implementing those countermeasures, predicated on there is no vaccine, so that situation has improved. The Games will go ahead.”

Coates also said that all the measures and precautions they have chalked out are for the safety of athletes and people of Japan. Moreover, the Pfizer and BioNtech vaccine deal with IOC is the major step to ensure that games kick off on 23rd July.

The recent test events and qualifying events which took place in Japan have shown that events can be held smoothly and safely. The rowing qualification event was the dress rehearsal with respect to the measures taken. The diving and marathon test events also were carried out smoothly.

The question is will the same happen when 11000 athletes arrive in Japan at the same time? We hope for the best that the safe and secure Olympics gives new hope to the whole world than being a superspreader event.

Pranati Nayak

Pranati Nayak

Pranati Nayak will travel to Tokyo Olympics 2021 after qualifying through continental quota. Pranati Nayak had won the bronze medal at the Asian Artistic Gymnastics Championship in 2019. 

The 26-year-old Pranati from West Bengal was the second reserve behind the Sri Lankan Elpitiya Badalge Dona Milka Geh for the Asian quota. But Pranati’s spot got finalized after the 9th Senior Asian Championships scheduled to be held in China got cancelled due to the pandemic situation. 

“I was very disappointed when I couldn’t achieve the qualifying score during the 2019 World Championship and with the pandemic cancelling all events, I never imagined that I will be able to realize this dream of going to the Olympics. I am now waiting for the official communication from the Asian or world body regarding the same”

Pranati Nayak’s long-time coach Minara Begum is extremely pleased to see Pranati qualify. Minara Begum retired from the Sports Authority of India (SAI) in 2019. 

While commenting on her qualification, Minara Begum said

“She retained her ranking points that she had achieved after competing at the Asian event in Mongolia and the world championship in Germany and got the Asian quota after the China event was cancelled. I’m extremely delighted for her”.

Praniti Excited to Put a Good Performance at Tokyo Olympics

Pranati was part of the Target Olympics Scheme (TOPS) for a year and a half till the 2018 Asian Games. But since she has qualified for the Olympics, it’s expected that Pranati will be back into TOPS.

Pranati expected to put up a strong performance at the 2019 World Championships, but her poor score in beam affected the overall score. It was tough for many athletes to stay fit during pandemic situations. Similar was the case with Pranati. But Pranati feels that she kept herself fit and trained well even if no events were scheduled for a complete year. Pranati hopes that she can train hard in the next few months and put a good performance at the Tokyo Olympics.

Pranati Nayak is the only Indian Gymnast at the Tokyo Olympics.

Tokyo Olympics Could Be Held Behind Closed Doors

The latest statement from the Tokyo Olympics President, Seiko Hashimoto suggests that games can even be staged behind closed doors. Hashimoto told AFP that all measures will be taken to ensure safe Olympic games.

Originally, the Tokyo Olympics were scheduled to be conducted from 24th July 2020. But due to the pandemic situation, the event was postponed for a year. As the days passed, the decline in the numbers of covid cases gave a glimpse of hope that games will be held under normal circumstances. But the recent surge in coronavirus cases has cast doubt yet again.

The organizing committee is optimistic and is planning safe games to be scheduled in time. They have already banned the overseas spectators at the Olympics to prevent the virus from spreading. The recent reports claim that the Olympics can be held behind closed doors which means the domestic spectators will also be banned from entering the Tokyo Olympic village.

There might be a situation where we can’t allow any spectators to attend,” said Seiko Hashimoto, in an interview, as reported by AFP.

List of Rules For Athletes laid by Tokyo Organising committee

Tokyo is said to be ready to welcome around 15600 athletes for the Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics. A set of rules have been laid for all athletes and more are expected to be announced as the days pass.

  • The athletes will be restricted from visiting tourist areas, shops, restaurants, bars, or gyms.
  • The athletes should get themselves tested twice before boarding the flight to Japan. 
  • Carrying a smartphone with two health monitoring applications is mandatory.
  • Other than eating, sleeping, training, or competing all athletes must wear masks all the time. 
  • Athletes must use the vehicles assigned and designed by Olympic officials. Using public transport is banned.

These are just a few of many such rules. More rules are expected to come up at the May end looking at the situation.
