BREAKING: Curling qualifying system accepted by the IOC.

 

Probably this is its first public release, here at Totallympics. Naturally, it was already sent to NOCs and NFs.

Is this the first sport to allow African qualification (minus IBSF)?

A quota for West Asia ! What for! Just to allow Qatar, Bahrain etc to buy a European and change his name and help him qualify ?! 

 

Even South East Asia - South Asia should have 1 combined

Wouldn't surprise me if that happens, but Qatar's international curling teams have been all Qatari born people, if I am not mistaken.

Qualification principles for the 2024 Winter Youth Olympic Games

The next Youth Olympic Winter Games will be Gangwon 2024 from 19 January to 1 February 2024. The ice hockey events will take place in Gangneung where Olympic ice hockey was played at the PyeongChang 2018 Winter Games.

424 athletes will be involved in ice hockey with an equal gender split. 108 players each for the six-team men’s and women’s ice hockey tournaments and 104 each for the eight-team 3-on-3 men’s and women’s tournaments. Following an IOC decision, the 3-on-3 tournaments will be played with national teams and not as mixed-NOC events as in Lausanne 2020.

The qualification criteria were presented to the member national associations. The top-11 ranked teams and the host can choose to participate in either the men’s or women’s tournaments according to a Combined Youth World Ranking based on the performances in 2022 and 2023 of the men’s and women’s U18 national teams. The teams ranked lower have the right to participate in either the men’s or women’s 3-on-3 tournament where the host country will also have a team (of the opposite gender compared to the regular tournament).

So it seems like we will get upto 47!! NOCS competing in hockey if I am reading this correctly?

 

 

Also of note all the other sports except biathlon have published their systems.
