2032 Olympics: Bris-Bane- Pause and effect

MELBOURNE: Since the time it was announced as the host city for the 2032 Olympics, the road so far has been far from ideal for Brisbane and Queensland. Uncertainty over venues, spiraling costs and other predicaments have led to some confusion. With the 100-day review nearing completion, TNIE with more... Away from the hustle and bustle of the busy Brisbane streets - about 12 kilometres south of the city centre - Queensland Sports Athletics Centre is a sprawling sporting locality. Situated at the junction of Kessler Road and Mains Road, the sporting complex is home to the State Athletics Facility, Nissan Arena, High-Performance Facilities, Sandstorm Beach Volleyball Club and the main QSAC stadium. The centre is vibrant and buzzing with activity. Built for the 1982 Commonwealth Games, the main stadium has since hosted several historic events - sporting and non-sporting - in the last four decades. As recently as the first week of December, the venue was witness to the record run Gout Gout had at the Australian All Schools Athletics Championships. The Ipswich-Brisbane-born teen sensation ran 200m in 20.04s to break Australias oldest athletics record set by Peter Norman in 1968. Currently the fastest in the world for 200m in U-18 and U-20 levels, Gout grew up at the QSAC facility. It is where, much like every aspiring athlete in Brisbane, he would turn up every day and train from a very young age. The same facility, with a capacity of about 48,000, is the home of Matthew Denny, the Paris Olympics bronze medallist in discuss throw, who comes in and trains here almost every day. In fact, of the 53 medals Australia won in the Paris Olympics, QSAC, Queensland Academy of Sport and the state itself cumulatively contributed to more than half of them (28). It is no wonder that there is an inimitable buzz in the air about the state and Brisbane getting to host the Summer Games eight years down the line in 2032. At the same time, though steeped in history and heritage, QSAC, The Gabba, and all other sporting venues are yet to have a clarity on what kind of a role they are going to play in the 2032 Olympics. While Brisbane was confirmed as hosts in 2021, the road till now hasnt been smooth. Since the announcement, several venues and development in terms of infrastructure in and around the city were being planned. But spiralling coast, like most Olympic venues, have been one of the main concerns. One among them was the refurbishing of The Gabba, however, it was given up with the cost estimates being much higher than anticipated. With the original organisational budget was quoted at USD 4.45 billion, it is understood to have already surpassed that last year. Even as the chaos and confusions continued, the new Queensland government that took charge this year has launched a 100-day review into the progress so far and how to take it forward. The seven-member committee Board of the Games Independent Infrastructure and Coordination Authority are conducting the review of the planning, competition venues, transport and infrastructure needs, including the athlete villages needed. The government. meanwhile, has created a portal where the Queensland people can submit their opinions on what they think is the right way forward. The Brisbane 2032 Organising Committee, led by Chief Executive Officer Cindy Hook, had plans to use 15 existing venues, upgrade nine more, while building six new and five temporary ones for the Olympics and Paralympics, which is eight years away. The Committee itself is self-funded at no cost to the taxpayer. And the 2032 event is expected to be the first Olympic and Paralympic Games to be fully planned and delivered under the International Olympic Committees (IOC) New Norm reforms, with focus on optimisation, innovations revenue generation and partnerships. However, as things stand, no venue listed in Q2032.au website can be sure of what is coming their way. The Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games Organising Committee (Brisbane 2032) is working closely with our Games Delivery Partners, including the Australian and Queensland Governments, and the newly appointed Independent Infrastructure and Coordination Authority Board, to ensure preparations are on track, a Brisbane 2032 spokesperson told TNIE. Since the review was launched by the newly-elected Labour government, outgoing CEO of Cricket Australia Nick Hockley has sent a proposal to build a new stadium at the Victoria Park/Barrambin, which is listed as one of the temporary venues at the moment. Located at the heart of the city, the Victoria Park is a lush green space that is spread over 64 hectares. From function space to golf course to cricket and tennis facility to just wide open walk trails and picnic spots, the park has everything a Brisbane resident enjoys. Adding to that, Barrambin, as it is called in Turrbal language, the park also holds significance in Aboriginal cultural history. As one walks through the park comes a board that reads: Early accounts of the area around Victoria Park/Barrambin describe it as an open woodland with a grassy understorey filled with sounds of birds. Up to 1000 Aborginal people resided in camps on the ridges and used the original water source near here which has been recreated in the Lagoon in front of you. While the review is still ongoing, one cannot be sure how building a massive sporting complex in Barrambin will be perceived. Infrastructure decisions to benefit Brisbane and Queensland long-term are the responsibility of Governments, with the Queensland Government putting in place an Independent Infrastructure and Coordination Authority and Board to evaluate demand, affordability, deliverability and overall impact of infrastructure to maximise social, economic and environmental outcomes, the Brisbane 2032 spokesperson added. As for public opinion, while there is excitement around the games, the general feeling has been a sense of anxious frustration. Show us some kind of plan, Get it started already seemed to be the mood among those who follow and are involved in sport. The picture will only get clearer as the 100-day review comes close in January. For now, all every one involved has to say is whatever role they have, they are happy to play as it will only boost and help the city and states development. Brisbane 2032, meanwhile, has this to say: We are focused on a sports program that reflects the values of the Olympic and Paralympic Movements, is operationally viable, and supports Brisbane 2032s commercial, sustainable, engagement and experience objectives. Weve had strong interest from a range of sports, including cricket, wanting to be involved in our Games and we expect that interest will continue in the months ahead. We look forward to our sport program taking shape and presenting it to the IOC and IPC in due course. With less than eight years to go, Brisbane surely would want everything rolling and finalised in the next year or two.

Hockey India League a big boost for youngsters: PR Sreejesh

CHENNAI: There is something about PR Sreejesh. He is always ebullient, seems at peace with himself and more than anything he is shrouded in an aura of positivity. Always cheerful and articulate, Sreejesh speaks his mind. During a short conversation, he felt that his stint as coach of the junior team had been fantastic. India won the junior mens Asia Cup title beating Pakistan in the final. The first major outing, in his words, was a good job. Sreejesh said that the revival of the Hockey India League was a big step. The league is like an international match where top players from across the world play and it is a platform where youngsters can learn and grow, Sreejesh said during a Zoom interaction on Friday. He said that like earlier editions, domestic players will benefit from it. With the HIL set to begin in the last week of December, Sreejeshs role has changed coaching to an administrator. Right now he is the Director and mentor of the Delhi SG Pipers team. The two-time Olympic bronze medal winner with the India hockey team said even this stint too would be interesting. Sreejesh realised that coaching was not easy either. Playing was easier than coaching, he said. As a player, you just need to worry about your own business. But now you are the boss of 40 players and another eight staff under you. You are responsible for everything. Then it is a new role. But I am enjoying it. I always say this on the field, the goalkeepers always act like a coach. You are commanding the defenders or organizing them, communicating with the midfielders and forwards. It has slightly changed now. I used to yell from the back or the goalpost but now I am yelling from the sidelines. Hockey is something which I had known for the last 24 years and teaching that game to the youngsters is something I am enjoying seriously, Sreejesh mentioned. It is not always that international players are inducted as coaches just after retirement. Sreejesh is an aberration. The moment he retired after the bronze medal at the Paris Olympics, he was offered the role of a coach for the junior national team. It happened unexpectedly, admitted Sreejesh, adding that he was hoping to take a break for two years and spend some time with the family. I just wanted to join the junior team not as a chief coach. I spoke with my family first about this offer from Hockey India. She said we are happy if you take us with you. We can shift to Bangalore because being a coach you get an apartment. About his new role as director of the Delhi team, Sreejesh felt that this would give him an opportunity to learn something about sports administration. He said that when Mahesh Bhupathi (CEO of the team) approached him and told him to help build the team he was more than willing to join. I have been in the sport for quite a long time and I know who are the best players, so I said yes, he said. Sreejesh has given an example of how HIL can help players. It is like this. When I step into a new franchisee in HIL, I'm going to be with some of the best foreign players. And I am going to learn everything from him. From the dining hall, what he eats what are the things he eats before a match his daily routine on a match day. How he prepares for a match or behaves before, during, and after a match. How he motivates a player when the team continuously loses or how he talks to a player when the team is winning. Sreejesh said that HIL helps because every country has its own style. India, we got a culture, we do have a style. The Europeans have theirs so do Australians. So you are getting a platform where you can learn. The former India goalkeeper also said that playing in front of a good crowd also helps. These youngsters who are 18, 17 or 20 and are dreaming about becoming a part of a senior team are getting the experience playing to play in front of a huge crowd, he said. I think that is an important part. Pressure management is something that is really important for becoming an elite or mature player. Sreejesh felt more than anything else he would want his Delhi team to enjoy their games. If they enjoy they will play well and win, he said. Sreejesh said he would be happy if the team finished in the top four.

Archerfield Road: Once the home of Slam champion, now a different wheelhouse

BRISBANE: 227 Archerfield Road, Richlands, Brisbane, Queensland. It is an address that holds significance not just in Australian tennis, but the countrys sporting history. Once a house to the West Brisbane Tennis Centre, it is where former World No 1 and Australian tennis legend Ashleigh Barty first hit a tennis ball on the court. Away from all the hassle of Brisbane city, Barty, with her long-time coach and friend Jim Joyce, spent almost two decades at the once buzzing facility, honing her tennis while also spending time with kids, who just like her, aspired to take up the sport she loved. Today, however, 227 Archerfield Road is unrecognisable. About two years ago, the 20189 sq.m property, previously owned by the Joyce family, was sold to Kingsmede, an investment company. However, before locking it down for one last time Joyce, three-time Grandslam winner Barty, who had retired in March 2022, and others who were associated with the centre had a get together and partied at the facility. That afternoon will mean as much to me as a lot of her big wins, Joyce was quoted saying to the Courier Mail. It was just bloody wonderful. There were no seats there because it was all gone. We just stood and chatted about her life and mine, had a bit of a hug and off she went and I pushed the locks across the gate, he had added in June 2022. When this writer visited the address on Friday, the only evidence of any connection to tennis was the old board that was left untouched. West Brisbane Tennis Centre, it read, with a phone number that doesnt work anymore. Looking over from the street, all one could see beyond the old damaged board were hundreds of cars parked and stacked one over another. Having been converted into an industrial complex, the address now leads to Wheel Pros a company that designs, markets and distributes branded aftermarket wheels. Besides that is another company called Auto Car Removals, which offers solutions to steel, remove and wrecking four-wheelers. Barty is now a retired tennis legend, she has been for a while now. She plays golf, had played cricket in the past, but has ruled out any sort of comeback to sports for the foreseeable future. With a young family to take care of, Barty, who does commentary occasionally, already has her hands full. Joyce, meanwhile, is spending time with family as well. Even as the duo has moved on, everyone, including this writer, who passes through the Archerfield road cannot help but pause, take note of the West Brisbane Tennis Centre board amidst a pile of cars and reminiscence about the role it had played in one of the Australian sporting legends.

Odisha's tribal lifter Jyoshna shatters youth Asian record

CHENNAI: Jyoshna Sabar created a youth Asian record for total lift at the ongoing Asian Youth Weightlifting Championships in Doha on Friday. She clinched a gold each in snatch (60kg), clean and jerk (75kg) and overall category (60+75=135kg) in the 40kg section at the event. Medal at an international meet is not new for the 16-year-old tribal girl from Odisha as she had already pocketed bronze medals at the 2023 edition of the continental event. Those medals came a couple of months after she won medals at the 2023 IWF Youth World Championships (bronze in total & silver in snatch). She bettered the results at the 2024 IWF Youth World Championships (silver in total and snatch and bronze in clean & jerk). What matters the most is her record overall lift of 135kg at the Doha event. Hailing from Pekata village of Rayagada tehsil in Gajapati district, Jyoshna's life changed for the better almost six years ago when she was spotted by scouts during a talent hunt drive at her Gram Vikas residential school in Kankia, Ganjam village. A year later, she shifted to the high-performance centre run by the state government in partnership with Tenvic Sports. When we visited her village last year after hermedals at the youth worlds, we noticed how difficult it was to reach there. Only one bus plies to the village. Her house is almost 10 kms from the bus stop, K Ravi Kumar, Olympian and secretary-general of the Odisha Weightlifting Association, told this daily. Her house was built with support from a cliff, which constituted one of the four walls. Father Kirttan Sabar is a small-time farmer while mother Gechameni is a housewife. Given her modest background, it's an achievement for her to come out of that place and win international medals, added Kumar. Jyoshna trained in Bhubaneswar till last year before being selected for a camp for youth weightlifters at NIS Patiala. Ramesh Chandra Padhi was her first coach at school. We donated weightlifting equipment to the school and there she trained with Padhi for almost a year. A lot of young girls and boys have been identified during such talent hunt programmes and Jyoshna is one among them. They can be the future of Indian weightlifting, signed off Kumar, who represented India at the 2012 London Olympics. Besides Jyoshna, India's Payal claimed 45kg gold with a total lift of 155kg (70 snatch + 85 clean and jerk). Her namesake won a bronze medal in the junior girls' 45kg competition, finishing on the podium after managing a total lift of 155 (70 snatch + 85 clean and jerk), while Babulal Hembrom ended third in the 49kg youth boys' section after lifting 197 (88 snatch + 109 clean and jerk).
