The first Alpine Cup race was scheduled for tomorrow in Martell.  It is cancelled but the other events in the new year are still scheduled at this time.

 

Other dates:

FORNI AVOLTRI (ITA) 07.01.21 - 10.01.21 Individual | SPRINT 

ARBER (GER) 01/28/21 - 01/31/21 Individual | SUPER SPRINT 

POKLJUKA (SLO) 03/18/21 - 03/21/21 Individual | SUPER SINGLE

 

I think that we will see some interesting names in the smaller/regional races during the Christmas break.  Estonia will host the Baltic Cup for example.  WIth no IBU CUP until later, these races, if they happen, stand a very good chance to see in increase in competitors as well as quality.

Is the IBU still using this season’s Nations Cup standings for Beijing 2022 qualification?

 

If so, can those rankings be viewed somewhere?

In terms of total quota per nation, I think so. There might also be individual spots again like last time, for a small number of athletes from nations outside of the top-X, which are handed out based on a ranking that's not publicly available (the IBU Qualifying Points List).

If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated! Full story and how to help can be found here!

Okay, so then the document I have might still be accurate. If it is, allocation works as follows: 

 

1-3 2020/2021 Nations Cup: 6 quotas

4-10 2020/2021 Nations Cup: 5 quotas

11-20 2020/2021 Nations Cup: 4 quotas

 

IBU Individual Qualifying Points List after the 5th World Cup in 2021/2022: 12 quotas (max of 2 per country to unqualified NOCs)

 

Reallocation: Next best athlete on the IBU QPL 2021/2022

These were the problems last time. I spent God knows how many hours trying to find this list and even trying to keep it updated myself (because the points per race are always posted after every race, but the total list is a non-published secret even though it's incredibly important once you look outside of the top nations), but all I kept finding was one list from one trimester which happened to be somewhere on Biathlon Canada's website.

 

One would think an important list, on which - among others - Olympic qualifying depends for a number of athletes, would not be impossible to find. Especially from a federation which generally has a very good results and PDF's system.

So where does this leave biathlon?  The result from today's CAS appeal reduced Russia's ban from 4 to 2 years.  But can they compete in the World Championships?  Can they have a biathlon team in the Olympics?  Quota's are done by nation, and if Russia is not allowed, how do the people qualify?  What about the relay?

    • Sorry but this is the stupidest idea I’ve ever heard… putting in 3x3 hockey (which doesn’t even have its own World Championships or anything like that) over telemark skiing, ice cross, and freeride skiing…    This is coming from a big fan of hockey. Curious as to what @hckošice @phelps @Epic Failure @copravolley@Topicmaster1010 think though?
    • Dawn McEwen will be unretiring temporarily (first time since Beijing 2022), as she’ll be stepping in for Shannon Birchard at the GSOC HearingLife Tour Challenge! 
    • The sister of Angelina Topić, Sofija Topić, is already beating her youth records.  Sofija (11) jumped 140cm which is better Angelina's 138cm at that age. 
    • I hope there is some diversity in teams across both disciplines.   I wonder how they will get the 240 quotas. Losing Nordic Combined + Ski mountaineering is only 72 quotas.
    • Last Call For Entries!!   If anyone still wants to enter, this is your last chance to do so. Since I now won't be able to use tomorrow as a voting day I have dedcied to give people an extra 24 hours from this point to enter. The public jury vote will still open at the advertised time. Below I have tagged user from countries that have yet to enter, hopefully they will consider to do so at the last opportunity:   South Korea: @erw@jgb0062 Croatia: @Nikica@snk911@VISOKO Gabon: @Damienyork Belgium: @ALABRAMMIE@Misterxxt Latvia: @Blueniceguy Dominican Republic: @eduardo096 Singapore: @bennetcraig39 Egypt: @mahmoud elrefaei @thepharoah Qatar: @amrgunenr1@KAE Australia: @Sir Rols@Stu192 @dullard Philippines: @JohnRamos84 @PHI2019 @Tigercub Iran: @Hesamkh1990 @MHSN Estonia: @Katie_M Bangladesh: @Razu Ahmed  Montenegro: @ChandlerMne Hong Kong: @pacowong1223    Also @NaBUru38 I know you said you weren't up for doing it due to time but do you think you would reconsider? The process would now only take 3 days with you sending your song Tuesday and voting on Thursday, which isn't really too much time taken up. 
    • I just now saw this, and I already have my vote ready, oh well. 
    • Quarter final Sept 30th    2 - 1     1 - 6    Second semi final October 3rd    vs      Europe vs. South America in the  Semi finals      Probably want to see a   vs  in the final.
    • Some details on the IIHF's 3 on 3 hockey proposal: 8 team tournament for men's and women's 15 athletes per team, 240 athletes total (if they include this they better increate the 2900 athlete cap...) IOC expected to make a decision about including it in the Olympics in March
    • Not to the public until end of Wednesday, entry deadline is under 5 hours from now. Gonna see if I can persuade a couple more to join, like our Uruguayan friend who said he would be able to join due to time but now might be able to with the short turn around.
