[JoshMartini007 2,536]

It looks like for some nations they are getting two athletics invitations. Probably to avoid from having only male athletes.

 

Of the ones I listed (         )

 

 now have a woman competing.

Team  @ Paris Olympics 

Official athletes delegation list released by our NOC. 
 

117* athletes in 16 sports ( 70 men & 47 Female) 

 

* Includes AP - 2 in Athletics(Relay teams) + 3 in Hockey + 2 in TT Team 

 

* 1 Female athlete ( Abha Khatua, Shotput) doesn’t feature in this official list although she qualified via rankings in the WA final updated list. No explanation for her absence is provided either by Athletics federation or the NOC . Will be interesting to see if WA will reallocate her quota to next best athlete on the ranking list.

announced 338, with 316 as the number qualified (the rest being alternates). However, their spreadsheet shows 318. So currently unsure what is correct.

 

 

[intoronto 5,638]

Canada is officially 316.  

 

Two relay athletes in athletics were moved to AP status (which makes sense, since each relay team had 7 names).

^ So you are saying, that Canada has more women, than men on their roster, without the "fancy" woke wording. I hope the IOC will be informed if any "non-female" females compete in female events, just so everything is fair of course.

Swords sisters are so good, they played in the same team with Ukrainian biggest prospect in women's basketball (literally biggest, 1.95 m center Kate Koval), love to see Syla there

[Roamingrover86 856]

At a press release from  NOC it was confirmed that we will be taking more support staffs & officials than athletes. As per IOC policy 1:3 policy will be maintained for accommodation & accreditation in Olympics village. Rest of the support staffs will be put up in a hotel at nearby competition hall/Olympic village with day pass accreditation. The cost for the same will be borne by our sports ministry.
