Doesn't seem to be major changes.

 

Section 3.B has been updated in relation to the host nation quota to introduce 'eligible' into the criteria. In the new version, 'if the host country has not already qualified an athlete, the highest-placed host country eligible athlete based on the final results of the Olympic Games 2028 Qualification Event will directly obtain a quota place. If the host country has already had one or two athletes qualify via alternate pathways, the host country quota position will not be granted and will be reallocated.'

 

There is also a change to section F1 and F2 to introduce gender criteria - 'If an allocated quota place is not confirmed by the NOC by the confirmation of quota places deadline, or is declined by the NOC, the quota place will be reallocated to the next highest placed eligible athlete not yet qualified of the same gender from the same qualification event where the quota place was allocated , adhering to the maximum number of quota places per NOC, as outlined above (B.2).'

New Dressage Qualification Document has been posted. No substantive changes - simply correcting errors in the December '25 version.

 

Section C2: corrected Minimum Eligibility Requirements Dressage to show it is subject to terms of paragraph 2 rather than 2.4 

 

F. Reallocation Paragraph 1.1: Removed reference to FEI Eventing Olympic Ranking and replaced it with FEI Dressage Olympic Ranking

Aww man that would have been really funny

Can I check the group's understanding of the Track Cycling qualification process as there seems to be a significant change compared to previous years which doesn't seem to have been commented on previously (unless I have missed it)

 

By my reading of the qualification document, NOCs that qualify for the Team Pursuit are eligible to enter a team for the Madison:

 

 

However, they are not automatically eligible to compete in the Omnium - only the 6 NOCs who qualify for the Madison through the Ranking List are eligible:

 

 

Does that align with the group's understanding of the process?

... process?

yes, it's changed back to how it was for 2020 so team pursuit qualifiers are not guaranteed a place in omnium.
