Some rules to follow:

• Karate, skateboard and surf doesn't counts
• Rugby 15 and Rugby 7 are two different sport
• International team, like the refuge team, doesn't count.

Any other idea?

Thailand is not a newcomer (they competed in 2004, 2012), but Israel will be.

I should say - as a team. They had individuals up until Tokyo, this time they qualified a team. If i am not mistaken.

Yes, that is correct. They will probably lose their quota in December however, as their riders are nowhere near minimum requirements at the moment (and time is running out).

Wow, that would be unfortunate thing. FEI rules are rather strict.

Interesting thing about Israel.

They usually call USA or ex-Soviet born athletes to represent them, depending on the particular sport. But not in equestrian. Plus, they are rich country. How come they are bad in this sport?
