Talk:Handball at the 2012 Summer Olympics – Men's qualification

venues
How can there be venues for the olympic qualifying tournaments if the locations are not finalized? Sweden, Spain, and Denmark all had the opportunity to qualify directly through the european championships yet they have a venue listed for a tournament they might not be in.18abruce (talk) 21:28, 25 January 2012 (UTC)
 * In Denmark at least it is not sure yet what venue will be used, even if they dont win the European Championship this sunday. Maybe the venues are simply those that have traditionelly been used by the host teams?? Jack Bornholm (talk) 09:51, 28 January 2012 (UTC)
 * As with the venues I ask how is it possible that teams are already determined? Everything seems to be mixed to much and based soley on assumntion. For example; Poland is listed in one of the groups, yet they arent quelified yet (if Serbia wins Slovenia is quelified and if Denmark wins then Poland). Then, Macedonia is "fixed" in Tournament#2 while being listed as "probable" for the Tournament#1 etc. I am also wondering on how it will be determined on who will host the quelifying groups? Does each team has a chance for the bid? Ratipok (talk) 11:56, 28 January 2012 (UTC)
 * You are right the last part of this article have been a bit confused, but it will all be over tomorrow. The top 3 teams from the WC (Not counting the World or Regional Champions) will host a qualifikation group each. And it is true, this page needs some references. Most of the information comes from the different articles on the different contests (WC, EC and so on) Jack Bornholm (talk) 17:54, 28 January 2012 (UTC)
