Asian Games organisers looking to reduce numbers as registrations exceed target

Asian Games organizers in Japan are seeking to reduce participant numbers for the upcoming event after registrations surpassed the projected 15,000, reaching approximately 17,000. This surge, including 11,000 athletes and 6,000 officials, could strain accommodation plans as the Games will not feature a traditional athletes' village. Organizers are in discussions with the Olympic Council of Asia to find a solution for the excess entries.
