^ Everything is unofficial so far. It's between :NOR Holmenkollen and :FIN Kontiolahti.

:BLR Raubichi are in but they have no chances.

Our male team wanted :KAZ Almaty (after Universiade), our female team roots for Holmenkollen.

 

 

ps. FIS suspended 6 Russian skiers (including Legkov & Vylegzhanin). All of them took part in Sochi Olympics (4 medals). I guess all these cases in other winter sports will influence biathlon too.

Some news from SVK team, After long discussions between our coaches and national federation, it was decided that we must compete at each World cup stage in order to maintain the 10 olympic quotas. so we will start also in Oberhof, but not in full composition.

 

only 3 mens and 2 womens will compete in Oberhof.

 

Men

Tomáš Hasilla

Martin Otčenáš

Michal Kubaliak

 

Women

Jana Gereková

Terézia Poliaková

* Anastasiya Kuzmina was given a "free choice" so she and her miniteam will announce her final decision if or not competing in Obehof in the next days.

 

 

The good news is that we will also compete in PyeongChang World cup stage with a full team 4 + 4

 

here the provisional plan of our participation in 2nd and 3rd trimester (ženy = womens, muži = mens)

Nobody at the IBU Cup in Martell and Slovak participation in Arber isn't sure yet? Come on, I gotta cheer for more than just the Brazilians :p 

If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated! Full story and how to help can be found here!

Yes. We will not send anyone to the first IBU Cup January stages in Martell, because it´s the highest situated biathlon venue and our athletes aren´t apparently prepared for that, source our biathlon national team coaches :dunno: and they will prefer to use this time for training camp and preparation for the upcomming European Championships which are the top goal of our so called "B" team. meanwhile we will compete the next stage in Arber but we will send only 2 mens Ondrej Kosztolányi and the junior Simon Bartko, and only 1 women Alžbeta Majdišová.

Ha, I noticed something was different, but couldn't quite put my finger on it :d
