Hangzhou 2022 is conducting pre-delegation registration meetings with 45 nations participating at the Asian Games by video conference over the course of three-and-a-half weeks.
Iran NOC; Tehran: It marks the
latest step in preparations for the delayed Games, following on from a Chefs de
Mission seminar last month which brief the representatives from 45 countries on
preparations. Pre-delegation registration meetings began on Saturday (May 20)
and are expected to run through to June 15. They aim to enhance communication
between the Organising Committee and National Olympic Committees, providing a
more accurate estimation of delegation sizes than has previously been
calculated to assist with operational aspects of preparations such as
accommodation and transportation. It is also hoped the meetings will ensure
registration information is submitted accurately. Hangzhou 2022 described them
as "an essential step before the delegations can participate in the
Games". A total of 483 medal events in 40 sports representing 61 disciplines
are due to be held at the Asian Games, with more than 10,000 athletes expected
