Mike, no problem.
Since Germany didn't qualify german umpires are not present at the olympics. It's not us either!
But in general You are right. We have clinics in germany too but what also adds up to it is the amount of games we get to call during the season since here we only play an weekends. But that differs from country to country, but as a rule of thumb we do not get to call as many games here.
Coming back to AUS-TPE: that's what I got from the boxscores as well but I was hoping anyone has seen it.
