An eventful summer awaits Latvian sports fans

The World Athletics Championships rightly claim the biggest sporting event of the summer. This will be the 18th time, but for the first time in America, although the Americans have not won the overall championship medal in the last 30 years. Medals are loved by everyone, and Americans in particular, which in turn guarantees the championship a global resonance.

The World Championships will be held in the west coast of Oregon, Oregon, USA, one of America’s iconic athletics venues.

also called the world running capital. Latvia could be represented in the world championship by five or six athletes, as usual, most of the javelin throwers.

The European Athletics Championships will take place in Munich in mid-August, 50 years after the Summer Olympics.

The representation of Latvian athletes in the championship in Bavaria could be wider, for example, with the new Latvian triathletes Rūta Kati Lasmanis and Darju Sopovs.

This time there is one important additional nuance – for the second time there will be a combined European championship in several sports. In Munich, these are nine sports, and

for sports fans, Bavaria could be a beautiful destination to support both athletes at the Munich Olympic Stadium and beach volleyball players in one weekend,

which will host the European Championships in Munich at King ‘s Square.

In Australia, on July 2, the International Boxing Federation (IBF) version of the International Boxing Federation (IBF) will hopefully finally compete. Maira’s public image has not benefited from the coward and the time of the Ukrainian war – the twice-postponed struggle gave him a lot of time and opportunities for strange statements in public space.

It should be even easier for a deer to prepare for a fight abroad in this situation.

Deer’s opponent will be Jay Opetaya, 10 years younger than him. Preparations were also hampered by the postponement of the fight – for the first time because Briedis fell ill with Covid-19, and for the second time after the opponent was injured. “Time is my enemy,” Briedis said in the spring.

Briedis fought his last serious fight in September 2020, and it has been a long test since then. Mairis definitely has to win the fight in Australia, and he is already there.

Some events are not to be missed immediately after the Midsummer holidays.

On the last weekend of June, the final stage of the European BMX Cycling Cup will take place in Valmiera, where all the best Latvian riders will take part. The Wimbledon Tennis Championship will start next week, where Alona Ostapenko will try to prove herself.

Of course, basketball cannot be forgotten either – on June 30, the Latvian men’s national team will have a game in the World Cup qualification against Serbia, in August there will also be very important matches for the next stage, potentially against Turkey, Greece and Great Britain.

The European Rally Championship competition “Rally Liepāja” will take place at the very beginning of July, the organizers are already modeling the track for the stage of the World Rally Championship, which will take place only in 2024. Pilot Mārtiņš Sesks will already have a very powerful car this year and a plan to fight for the best three in the European Championship stage.

Of course, a significant event in August will be the qualification of the European Championship, where Latvian volleyball players will start under the leadership of the new head coach of the national team Mihala Gogol. On the other hand, the season, which started successfully at the end of the summer in the League of Nations, will be completed by the Latvian national football team.
