@Sindo is there any format for the individual threads, including the post for each event?

 

Not sure yet, we will find a format in the next months.

I also posted a more specific document in the specific thread...

you can cross-post it here, too (if you want)...

 

by the way, Karate qualification pathway is gonna be one of the most difficult (I hope not also controversial...but never trust WKF) of any sport...

to give an idea, just think that in some Kumite classes at the last World Champs there were more than 150 starters (with the 1 per NOC rule) and at the Olympics we're going to have only 10 starters per class (and in Kumite in 4 out of 6 chances, an Olympic class is made up of 2 "normal" weight categories)...

 

good luck to all the Karate players in the World...

Is the fencing qualification system official and validated by the IOC?

Once I stumbled on a forum where someone shared this as the list of Pyeongchang flag bearers.

I look forward to learning about the qualifying system for team sports

I can't find an official document for baseball/softball but the Italian Federation has just published an article with all details, saying it is now approved by IOC: http://www.fibs.it/it/news/nazionali-baseball/43221-tokyo-2020,-il-sistema-di-qualificazione.html

So, a good chance for Venezuela or Puerto Rico to grab a softball quota.
