Hello

 

Do you know how the Japanese NOC usually treats qualifying for Winter Olympics? Specifically biathlon has my interest. I mean, do they ask for athletes to reach some specific standards (like Dutch athletes who have to reach top-8 in a World Cup even if they are qualified according to international standards)?

 

I'm trying to estimate the chances for Japan to use all of their tickets for the Olympics in case they get 5 or 2 tickets (they won't get 6, so 5, 2 or 0 through the Nations Cup are the only options)...

 

Fuyuku Tachizaki is basically the only Japanese biathlete who is a regular in the World Cup top-30, so I'm wondering if the Japanese NOC might only send her even if they have 2 or 5 tickets.

Most winter sports national selection systems for PyeongChang  are still unkown(the only I know is curling).

 Considering the domestic qualification for 2014, Japan biathlon federation will use all the quotas and the national trials will be held in the early 2017-2018 season.
