- Sports123 has Beck with silver and Österberg with bronze, but according to World Games News Number 14, it must have been reversed. This is confirmed by this Swedish note where Österberg won one silver: Web site: Ingen svensk medalj. 30 September 2013. dead. https://archive.today/20130930115839/http://hem.bredband.net/castingsport/Nyheter/Nyhetsarkiv/2005_Juli/20050718_World_Games.htm. 30 September 2013. However, the IWGA World Games website database also lists Beck second and Österberg third (date: 29 August 2017).
- There is very little known about this event. The World Games News from September 1997 have 12 sets of medals in casting in 1997, and only 11 are known. We can see that the remaining set of medals went to GER-CZE-FIN: Web site: IWGA World Games News. 14 . 30 September 2013. On a Finnish note we can see that Kosonen won two bronze medals in 1997.Web site: Suomalaisten menestykset maailmalla. 30 September 2013. On the other hand, the IWGA World Games website database does not include this event in 1997 (date: 29 August 2017).
