Guide to the Summer Universiade 2017

These competitions have their own anthem, mascot and slogan, but there will be no Russian athletes.

Where and when

From August 19 to 30 in Taipei. Brasilia and Turkish Izmir argued for the right to host the competition. Taiwan is the only country among the applicants where the Universiade has not been held before. In Brazil, student games were held in 1963, and Turkey hosted athletes in 2005.

For the capital of the Republic of China, these competitions will generally become the largest and most significant sporting event throughout the history of the island nation. All tickets for the Opening Ceremony, which will take place on August 19, were sold out a month ago.

Kinds of sports

For a week and a half, athletes will compete for 275 sets of awards in 22 sports. In addition to the fourteen compulsory events that are presented at each Summer Universiade, organizing committee eight more were added. Six of them have previously been student games: archery, badminton, baseball, golf, taekwondo and weightlifting. Wushu and roller sports will make their debut at the Universiade this year.

Most awards will traditionally be played by representatives of athletics - 50 sets of medals, in swimming, athletes will compete for 42 sets, in taekwondo - for 23 sets.

Russian team

The University Sports Federation has set a plan for this Universiade of 40 gold medals. Well-known and titled athletes, winners and prize-winners of world championships and Olympic Games will be involved in this task. So, divers Ilya Zakharov and Evgeny Kuznetsov, archer Tuyana Dashidzhieva, weightlifter Artem Okulov and others will compete for our team.

Representatives of track and field athletics will not be able to speak at the Universiade. The Russian Student Union was unable to register athletes to participate in the games.

“Our athletes will not perform at the Universiade in any status, so nothing happened. It was planned that 11 people would go there, but we never received any clarification from International Federation collegiate sports on how neutral athletes will compete. It was not clear how to enter them into the database,” Sergey Seiranov, president of the Russian Sports Student Union, told TASS.

The 2017 Universiade in Taipei has come to an end, the Russian team at the 29th Summer World Student Games took fourth place in the team standings.

6:07 31.08.2017

The 2017 Universiade in Taipei came to an end, the Russian team at the 29th Summer World Student Games took fourth place in the team event, for the first time since 2001, in terms of the number of gold medals, it was not among the top three teams.

The Universiade lasted from 19 to 30 August. During this time, 271 sets of awards were played in 21 sports, more than 7.5 thousand athletes from 144 countries took part in the competition. The Russian delegation included 348 athletes representing more than a hundred universities of the country, including athletes who are students of foreign universities.

On the first line of the medal standings is the Japanese team (37-27-37), the second position was taken by the team of South Korea (30-22-30), the third place was taken by the Taiwanese team (26-34-30). The Russian team won 25 gold, 31 silver and 38 bronze medals. In total, the Russians won 94 awards and were second only to the Japanese (101) in the total number of medals.

Most successful Russian athletes performed in rhythmic gymnastics, where they won seven gold, four silver and two bronze medals. They also showed good results in diving (4-3-3), where the country, in particular, was represented by world champions Ilya Zakharov and Evgeny Kuznetsov. The Russian team won the most awards in swimming - 16, but only two of them are gold (2-5-9).

The plight of athletes

The last time the Russian team remained below the top three was in 2001, when Beijing hosted the Universiade. In the Chinese capital, the Russians also finished fifth, leaving behind the teams of Ukraine, Japan, the USA and China.

President of the Russian Student Sports Union Sergei Seiranov, commenting on the results of the competition, identified two reasons why the national team failed to stay in the lead. In many respects, the fact that Russian athletes could not compete in Taipei prevented. Ongoing suspension All-Russian Federation athletics (VFLA) allowed the Russians to compete at the Universiade only in a neutral status, as happened at the recent World Championships in athletics, but it was decided to abandon this idea. Although at the last Universiade, which was held in Kazan, athletes brought 29 medals to the Russian team, 12 of them were gold. In Taipei, 50 sets of awards were played in athletics.

"The second blow - we knew that China was ignoring the Universiade, but the fact that they would bring such "passengers," Seiranov said about the second reason. table tennis, and the Chinese have only one gold! As a result, all these medals that the Chinese were supposed to win (badminton, rollersport, table tennis) were played among themselves by three Asian countries: Japan, South Korea, Taiwan.

Deserved victories

It was also understandable that the Japanese team wanted to show their best side, whose capital will host the summer matches in three years. Olympic Games. "Japan has never shown such an attitude towards the Universiade before," Seiranov noted.

This was also noted by the country's leadership. Throughout the tournament, the President of Russia noted the contribution to success national team Universiade winners.

Following the results of the competition, Vitaly Mutko, Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation for Sports, Tourism and Youth Policy, sent a government telegram to the athletes. "You showed your best athletic qualities, confidently fought against worthy opponents, and brought well-deserved medals to Russia," the telegram says.

Who will be the leader of the medal standings of the Summer Universiade 2017

The Taiwanese team does not have enough stars from the sky, so it is hardly worth expecting a victorious sprint from the athletes of the host country. In previous draws, the top three were distributed as follows:

Gwangju (South Korea), 2015:

  • South Korea;
  • Russia;
  • China.

Kazan (Russia), 2013:

  • Russia;
  • China;
  • Japan.

Shenzhen (China), 2011:

  • China;
  • Russia;
  • South Korea.

Belgrade (Serbia), 2009:

  • Russia;
  • China;
  • South Korea.

Bangkok (Thailand), 2007:

  • China;
  • Russia;
  • Ukraine.

Izmir (Turkey), 2005:

  • Russia;
  • China;
  • Japan.

Daegu (South Korea), 2003:

  • China;
  • Russia;
  • South Korea.

Beijing (China), 2001:

  • China;
  • Russia.

As can be seen from the list, the leaders are three countries: Russia, China and South Korea. Therefore, they are likely to be the leaders of the final table of the Summer Universiade 2017. However, politics can interfere in sports once again. There has already been a precedent when, in response to the Taiwanese government's harsh attacks, Chinese officials threatened to boycott the university games. Let's hope that political discord will bypass the upcoming Universiade!

Afterword

So, now you know when the tournament will take place, how much competitive disciplines fans will see and who claims to win in the unofficial standings. So buy tickets or even offer yourself as a volunteer. Fortunately, the registration of volunteers for the Universiade is still ongoing. Well, for those fans who do not have the opportunity to attend competitions in Taiwan with their own hands, there will always be sports channels that will broadcast round-the-clock television broadcasts!
