before being dropped like other chinese players shun show now received lucrative offers from abroad she moved to a german club which encouraged her to also take up citizenship. in many. from the manager wanted to apply. behalf but i said no i wanted to retain my chinese passport but i gave it a lot of thought the manager said that if i had a german passport i could play another 10 years for the club and that's obviously an incentive for shaan shown i have by this point already been living in europe for 7 years winning the champions league and 2 german singles titles she also became friends with kids the long run and the multiple german and european champion was eager to help her budding maid of honor and i are going to i'm scared of what if i was asked a few times by senior officials what i made of shana as a player. i said that she could be a big asset for the german team and that i would definitely welcome such

a move in front of the course and other players nationality is subject to a confusing array of regulations for world championships some show now wouldn't be eligible to compete for another 9 years but the olympics were open to her immediately and. the manager are sorry if i fancied playing for germany and that. i never thought i'd get that kind of chance. i said ok let's try it and i really did make it. amazing. i'm so happy. for. shaun show now became german in 20124 years later the rio olympics the german team with her in it's made it to the final where they sensationally claimed silver has become the most because i'm so grateful to germany i would otherwise never have been able to compete at the end in pics it was making the switch from china to germany that gave me the chance germany expressed its

gratitude to shine show now with the country's highest sporting distinction the silver laurel leaf i'm german table tennis also one of course i'm not with 2 other i know not true lies germans and for to the society we honestly would not have won a medal in rio and of course this one. funding for the judo association and grounds youth programs. for a lot of countries sports authority is changing nationality is evidently an investment in the future. while there are always 2 sides sure i have the option of living my dream and going to the olympics but there's no country in the world that would go to the trouble of issuing a passport in this case for a german if it did not stand to gain. from hoping my they've done so i've got a new passport after just a few months it was handed over to her in kinshasa by domenico kobo not

a government official but the president of the congolese judo association since then she's been competing for the d r c who moved to school i was touched because everyone was saying it's impossible she's white neither of her parents are from congo so i didn't know how i was supposed to make her congolese what i said was it's a sports nationality which no one understood when it was done i felt very emotional because as she gave me the bronze i has since gone on to win 2 world cup of bends and gold at the african championships for her new countries judo association funds tracking her citizenship application turned out to be very profitable. never been a gold medal for congo before and it was my re who gave it to us. that gold medal also meant money for the association is there any benefit for locally born judoka in fact the deol seized team for the tokyo qualifiers comprised solely of

athletes who like live abroad. and in german table tennis the practice of producing chinese players goes back decades. to see coming also in line generations we had to be chinese women in the national team who just arrived in germany. where they were competing for places in the european and world championship squads which wasn't good news for everyone and that is the i of course it impedes our own news programs why should i bother to develop 10 equally good players feyerick government training programme only to see those places taken by others that's a victory. but germany is not the only country naturalizing table tennis players from china it's a global phenomenon. table tennis at the olympics could arguably be called a chinese championship a quarter of male and female players at the rio games were born in china. they

competed for over a 3rd of all nations represented including the u.s. turkey canada qatar brazil and china itself of course. as the number one sport table tennis enjoys world class backing in china. look at the chinese women's team 40 players in total but only 5 of them will go to the major tournament the other $35.00 players are just kind of training partners. and a fair number of them will switch to another country as a result table tennis is the world's leading sport when it comes to naturalized. in rio they comprised 31 percent of entrants while the figure for judo was 11 percent . qatar is one of the various countries using financial incentives to attract new recruits the success of foreign born athletes suddenly

representing turkey has also been controversial. the african athlete exceeds responded the present situation is wrong what we have is a wholesale market for african talent open to the highest bidder the world governing body has now amended the rules to prevent athletes switching. legion's overnight. is an olympic winning javelin thrower and an official athlete representative. world athletics the old i really tighten things up creating new stipulations for both athletes and associations what i know as an athlete representative is that switching your country or your jersey is not always the same we have refugee stories where young athletes have arrived in a new country due to their personal plight. and once they're of course they can't wait to take their passion even up to the international level. and that's

completely understandable. 20136 years later she became german and is now considered a major medal contender. also left ethiopia as a refugee becoming a dutch citizen and a world beating middle and long distance runner but some athletes and stateless. had to leave the war torn democratic republic of congo as a young orphan but later competed at the rio olympics in the refugee team. at the tokyo games. to represent the same country that other top judoka have been forced to flee from on the other hand the d.l.c. team has won some new fans. i think. that in the olympics i'll be cheering on condo in the olympics. as so often sports is not a level playing field this athlete got

a new passport in no time while this one had to wait overcome a series of hurdles. it's not felt i could have competed for longer if i'd had a gem and possible telly out. but i had to wait 8 years to get it. and by then i've gotten older. and in turkey it takes you just one or 2 years to get the passports in my opinion the rules around the fact. international olympic committee could even things up but the world's biggest sports organization has refused to putting the ball in the court of the national associations switching nationalities in the sports world is a bit like table tennis the seemingly endless back and forth and for the time being each country plays by the rules which it sets itself.
