Czech Olympic Committee approves 100 nominees for team for Tokyo

The Czech Olympic Committee has approved 100 nominees for the Czech team for the Olympic Games in Tokyo in a month’s time. However, the composition of the team may change once qualifications for the games have closed.

Athletes should make up the largest single group; 11 have already qualified and the Czech Olympic Committee expects another 16 to make the grade.

One-hundred and four Czechs took part in the last Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, which was the lowest number since Melbourne in 1956.
