If I counted correctly, in Rio and London there were respectively 24 and 25 countries with at least one male and one female archer. The countries that qualify a men's and/or women's team will have the advantage of keeping only the best score, so several nations with only 1 man and 1 woman won't enter an event created for nations with 1 man and 1 woman. well, this is the procedure used in each and every world cup, continental and world champs event... for the mixed team events, they just add the best man and woman for each Country and make the rankings...the top 16 go through to the elimination round stage... I don't see anything wrong... I understand that many of you are used to the Olympic format for team events, where no teams are normally eliminated after the ranking round, but that's the abnormal situation...in any other circumstance, we always have more than 16 teams at the start of any event and only the top 16 going through to the final stages... p.s. that document is written very, very poorly, but it's clear that all the NOCs with at least 1 man and 1 woman qualified to the Games will start also in the Mixed Team event (and they all will start from 0, from the same point...so, there's nothing unfair) AlFHg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overall this was done to make sure at least 16 NOCs have a male and female archer. I agree however, it wouldn't be a problem to reach that number even without a dedicated qualification pathway, considered the previous Games...

Maybe they wanted participation from all continents though even then it's likely everyone will be in attendance through team and individual qualifiers: Egypt for Africa, Canada/Mexico/United States for Americas, Australia for Oceania and various nations for Asia and Europe.

Dunadan 1,103 Posted March 19, 2018 #25 Share Posted March 19, 2018 At world championships every country competitive enough can send up to 3+3 archers, so it makes sense to add the scores of the best man and the best woman. Here some will be forced to send only 1 + 1. So I still find this system unfair...it would be fair if NOCs with 4 or 6 archers had to choose their mixed pair before the ranking round (Yeah, "they all start from zero", but with a different number of possible teams, 1 or 3 or 9, and not because they chose so).

Rdbc 47 Posted March 25, 2018 #26 Share Posted March 25, 2018 Hey, I'm hoping someone can explain the qualification to me. If a country qualifies a team does that mean they also qualify three individual athletes aswell? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
