Possibly not every nation takes this too seriously.

Naples by the way, for some big nations, 16-17 years is almost being a pro, I suppose. Their best athletes will take part to senior events directly

Or more likely they don't care.

 

Just like qualification systems and competition formats take away almost all seriousness of the event. YOG is more like some festival, shouldn't have "Olympic" in the name which just confuses fans/media...

What kind of a combined event has 500m sprint, 1000m sprint and 5000m elimination?
