the most bizarre thing isthat Bahrein had naturalize runners in athletics
shouldn't the Militaries be native & 100% from the nation ??????

In my opinion, soldiers who have been naturalized should not participate. Either this is a show of your country's army or people accidentally drawn.

The US army generally offers a path to citizenship for naturalized service members, green cards for interpreters and other foreigners that help with logistics like that, allies sometimes will be given an offer to get a green card, and people from other NOCs such as :ISV obviously serve in the US military. I think these policies are great. It inspires people to work with the US military and rewards them for their work. So what if we happen to a have a few dozen naturalized Kenyans that run for the army, which gives them a path towards citizenship and the US Olympic Team :p

In my opinion, you are from country X and represent your home country. The matter gets complicated when you are a stateless person (I immediately remembered the movie Terminal) or if you want to take a second citizenship.

Yes, I am aware of that. The winter sports are especially dependent on that funding.

Probabily winter athletes are less dependent than atheltes in sport like swimming or athletics, or all others.

    • Actually, it seems Wicklow Irish Pub is an actual small chain in the city of Queretaro in  
    • But it seems to us that Norway wasn't as strong in Lillehammer 1994 as it was later? And not just in women's events. Generally, until 2000, Norway was much weaker in women's biathlon and women`s cross-country skiing. I remember in the 1990s, Italy's biggest rivals, Belmondo and di Centa, were Russia, when Norway somewhere further back and only in the classic style. Bente Martinsen- Skari, this is their first really strong girl in cross country, just about 2000, just like Liv Grete Skielbreid- Pioree in women`s biathlon at similar times.   Do you think, that is there any hope that thanks to the popularity of Haaland and football in general in Norway in recent years, winter sports such as biathlon or cross-country skiing will lose a little bit, becouse that?

    • This suggestion  @Dnl  made some months ago has also been implemented.   In each club, I have added a "Milano Cortina 2026 Qualification Tracker" record which takes the content from the Qualification by Nation tracker of that NOC.   People who see it can not edit the content, but it will be automatically updated once @Matej will update the record, and if you notice any mistake feel free to report it to Matej or in the record itself.   Club's admins can now edit the name of the section into their own language or change the spelling, I have used "Milano Cortina 2026 Qualification Tracker" for all the clubs. To do so, go inside the section, then click on "Manage Club"-"Edit this database Record" and change the name of the section:     By the way, if you are not a club's admin but you would like to edit things inside the club just let me know and I will give you the rights to do so. There can be more "admins" inside the club with the rights to edit and organize the sections, and that's not a role that require time or commitment.   Let's try to make all the clubs active during MiCo and when the LA28 qualifications will start!
