As far as Brazilian winter sports athletes (at least XC and biatlon) go, that'd only be veteran Fabrizio Bourguignon who would be eligible for it :p 

Ah, I’ve seen her in the results for 2013 I believe. The Chileans and Argentinians have sent their biathletes before too.

him* :p 

 

I knoe Juan Agurto of Chile is/was in the army, not sure about which Argentinians are but since one of their main bases around races (Bariloche I think) is in a military complex, I wouldn't be surprised if they've got a few as well.

Based off the incomplete results I have from 2013, the South Americans present at the games were Claudia Salcedo (CHI), Marco Zuñiga (CHI), Pedro Beltran (CHI), Yonathan Fernandez (CHI), Fabrizo Bourguignon (BRA), and Juan Agurto (CHI). I guess there were no Argentinians in 2013, but I feel like I’ve seen them mentioned in the 2010 or 2017 results before.

I don't know Zuñiga and Beltran, I wasn't sure about Yonathan Fernandez ( @Jesús ), although he gave me a Chilean army/sports team t-shirt last October in Brazil which made me think maybe he could be in military games too, and I had no idea Claudia (who is wonderful) was in that as well, cool :d

Claudia was the only one not to lodge an official. result of the South Americans. She didn’t finish the sprint (I don’t know why).
 

Agurto came last on the men’s side in the sprint. Bourguignon came third to last. The other Chileans managed to beat a few European, Asian, and US biathletes coming 84, 85, 86 out of 98 (plus 7 biathletes that didn’t start). Yonathan finished just under 8 minutes behind Lukas Hofer who won the gold medal. The Chileans came 21 out the 22 in the men’s team sprint classification. They beat the Czechs by about 45 seconds, and lost out to the Koreans by about 25 seconds.

Well they actually went into affect before the last Winter Universaide. I would make sure the BUSF is aware of the change (though I’m sure they are) before you get to the real stages of planning. As I said, I’m there’s special exceptions that could be made, and maybe they already obtained one for @brunamoura. I’d love to see her at the games, so I hope that’s the case.

 

I can provide any other info y’all need. Hopefully this gets sorted out.

 

It has now been confirmed by the Brazilian federation on which I better make no remark as to their quality and know-how: no Winter Universiade for her.

Sorry to hear that, but at least y’all didn’t find out a month/weeks before the games.

Yep, thanks for that. It sucks, but it sucks less than finding it out in December.

 

I'll ask Gabriela Neres if she's planning to go there, 2021 will be what's now her last year of eligibility and I know she's at university, it'd be really cool if she can go.

Thank you, @Olympian1010. Unfortunately, as @heywoodu said, it was confirmed by the federation. Now, complete focus on the preparation for the XC World Championships, which main goal for me is to get qualified for the 30km race.

    • Some of the small nations have competed in the past but usually lost 30-0 to the Aussies
    • Officials persons (include Head) of RLF are still in ban. For example, Vaelbe has spoken even more terrible words but, however, CAS obliged to gave them AIN status. And it's the same situation here - FIL must to implement CAS's decision. But it's not clearly FIL's criterias for AIN status and that too strange
    • For Modern Pentathlon, it's interesting that Africa only gets one continental championship spot, considering how well Egypt does in the event.  (But then again, it's max 2 athletes per NOC per gender.)  Presuming that an Egyptian wins the African CCh, I suppose their performance in the other major competitions will allow the second competitor to come through.
    • Statement from the president of the russian Luge federation (yesterday): "Our team is in Kazakhstan and is preparing to apply for U.S. visas. We are setting an example for our entire country, especially for the younger generation. They see that a difficult path is not a reason to give up. It teaches perseverance. In this perseverance lies our shared strength, our mission to millions of young people for whom sports are a guiding point and a shining star. I believe in our country, in our strong-spirited guys. I sincerely love and respect our president, Vladimir Putin. He is the best president in the world. May God grant him strength and good health."   Do they deserve neutral status?
    • I did not think it would happen again but... I created similar post for Paris - 2024 https://totallympics.com/forums/topic/27489-ain-athletes-qualification-for-paris-2024-olympic-games-and-reallocation-of-quotas-post1-updated-1507/#comments  I was not sure if that reallocations would really happen but the reality was even more serious than the expectations. According to this research 43% of the neutral statuses issued by the IFs were fake AIN  - https://razom22.com/neutrality-research/  And the figures are based on the IOC decisions - not on the evaluations by Ukrainian NOC or sport ministry. Right now the situation is absolutely unclear. As usually )) Some notes: 1. Russians will not reject quotas for 2026 as they did for 2024 in judo and wrestling. 2. AINERP may be more loyal to russians due to the new member - Watanabe. His federation issued AIN status to Melnikova who took part in the primaries of the russian ruling party, had phots with Z and e .t.c. 3. I do not expect a lot of reallocations becaues of the total small number of the rus/blr athletes in qualification events right now. 4. BUT, even with these small numbers we see that FIS allowed to compete several incompliant persons.        Short notes from the IOC statement before Paris - 2024:   1. IOC`s decisions to reject quotas are final. 2. IOC`s decisions to approve quotas are not final - new facts may lead to the rejection of invitation. 3. IOC`s decisions cannot be appealed - NOCs were not invited to the Games, so it is a good will to invite individual athletes... or not   russians Sports Athlete(s) Discipline Possible Reallocation NOC IOC Decision + IF reallocation if happened Figure skating Adeliia PETROSIAN Women's singles Stefania Yakovleva Confirmed by IOC Figure skating Petr GUMENNIK Men's singles Davide Lewton Brain Confirmed by IOC belorussians     Sports Athlete(s) Discipline Possible Reallocation NOC IOC Decision + IF reallocation if happened Figure skating Viktoriya SAFONOVA Women's singles Stefania Yakovleva Confirmed by IOC  
    • I would say they will not be eligible. But it realy abotut the wording every federation has in its papers. World Aquatics changes their policies several times (especially after Mazepin "solved the issues" persoanlly - as witnessed one russian Olympic champion)   Inoirtnat notes on FIS decisions:   FIS points are frozen for ruissns and belorussians - so the situation is not so complicated for a lot of them. The list of the AIN`s is not final as the list from ISU was. It means that persons mau be not only removed from the list but added as well. I expect russians to try some freestyle applications before the stage in China, for example. FIS has not problems with the deny of visa or entris by the host countries. So they kept the possibility to close the doors for the russians for all the countries as ICF did. No sanctions for this, no removing events from the Olympic qualification list, no host changes,   * * * * * Here is the the relevant extract from FIS papers for Aerials tram event. What do you think?
    • Not only Korostelev but all 3 russian entries. I will bring the detail 
    • And will bet that the IBU is a lot richer than the FIS because their wealth is based on German TV contracts.  
    • Russians filed an appeal to CAS against IBU. But I do not believe they will get any result in time to grab quotas. I suppose IBU will not agree to have "fast" hearings as FIS did. And i suppose IBU will fight in CAS without intention to lose as FIS did.
