No Olympic medals for "alternates"
There are no Olympic medals for alternates who weren't able to play a single Olympic game. Check out this story here on another Canadian soccer player who also missed out on a medal: FIFA'S rules are archaic but life is not fair. Regards, --Leoboudv (talk) 08:58, 17 August 2012 (UTC)

Emily Zurrer was not named an alternate. She was named to the team and was then injured, therefore having to give up her status ON the roster. It's a different situation, therefore she received a medal. Regards.


 * Comment: This local news article here establishes that Zurrer did get a soccer bronze medal after all since she was a regular member of the Canadian team's Olympic roster. Good observation. I just saw it today. Kind Regards, --Leoboudv (talk) 00:19, 18 August 2012 (UTC)
