Competitions in basketball, track and field and tennis have all found new host countries.
The International Basketball Federation (FIBA) Women’s Olympic Qualifying Tournament has shifted from Foshan in China to Belgrade in Serbia.
In tennis, The Fed Cup Asia/Oceania Group also moved from Dongguan to Kazakhstani capital Nur-Sultan.
On the weekend, the Asian Athletics Association (AAA) cancelled their Indoor Championships. The 9th Asian Indoor Athletics Championships has initially set their dates for Feb 12-13 in Hangzhou, China.
