The players do not want to get injured with the tight schedule and miss Singapore events at the same time. We want to play at the Singapore Smash Event first before heading to the African Games\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt will definitely look so bad for our sports if no player from Africa participates in this year\u2019s Singapore smash\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The African champion revealed that the schedule of the African Games will cause injuries to several African players who are aiming to participate in this year\u2019s Olympic Games in Paris.<\/p>\n<p>He said, \u201cThe schedule of African games will cause injuries to several African players and we are in the Olympic year which is super important for all athletes to stay without injuries. This is because there are seven events in African games and all of these events are scheduled to be played in just seven days.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is an option to play on other dates but the excuse is that there will be four sports in just one venue. The African Games was postponed last year because facilities were not ready and having four sports in just one venue still means facilities are not fully ready. It is very possible to play from 15th to 23rd March because African games is from early March.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>African no 1 Table Tennis player, Quadri Aruna has raised concerns over the clash&hellip;<\/p>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":14748,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-14747","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.1.1 -
