More or less. ITTF set aside 22 quotas for team members which have not qualified in the singles tournament. This was done to guarantee nations which qualified 1 athlete to the singles tournament, but also qualified a team two athletes in order to make a team. Of course in hindsight it is unlikely we will need more than 16 quotas. North America is guaranteed to always have 2 from the same nation while Asia, Europe and Oceania are pretty much guaranteed to have 2. Africa is still very likely to have a nation with 2 as long as Egypt and Nigeria remain the top nations. The only scenario where a nation would need 2 team athlete quotas is for Latin America and the host. Of course it’s better to be safe than sorry when making the qualification document.

Most nations have accepted their quotas from the world rankings. The biggest ones missing are China, Japan, South Korea and Chinese Taipei. I wouldn’t be surprised if there was some internal selection going on between eligible players. Sweden has also yet to confirm Kristian Karlsson. There is the possibility of an internal selection from there too or maybe they just haven’t gotten around to doing it, they were quite slow to accept the quotas after the European qualifiers.

Does anyone know if GB has qualified a Men's Team in Table Tennis, and if so do we compete with 2 athletes or are we allowed a third?

You will be given a third (he can only compete in the team event).

That's great news!

We reached the Semi-Finals at the recent World Championships, so hopefully a good result can regain some government funding for Table Tennis, which currently recieves no government funding, to improve British table tennis in the future.

To keep things correct China has declined its men’s (Fan Zhendong) and women’s (Liu Shiwen) singles quotas obtained from the world rankings it has been reallocated to China’s Xu Xin and China’s Ding Ning respectively. Oddly enough China did not accept the quotas. Similarly Japan declined its men’s singles (Maharu Yoshimura) quota causing it to reallocated back to Japan’s Koki Niwa. Japan has accepted the quota. Overall China and South Korea have yet to accept their quotas.

That's odd. They have something against Yoshimura?

      Canoe Sprint There is a now a cap of 5 athletes per gender in the kayak events (down from 6 in 2024). The World Championships has been replaced by the Olympic Qualification Rankings.   K2 lost 2 boat quotas while K4 has gained 1 boat quota. Quota distribution is quite complicated as it usually is for canoe sprint. They also force nations to compete in a minimum number of events based on the number of athletes qualified; 2 and 3 athletes per boat class must compete in 2 events, 4 must compete in all 3 events and 5 must compete in all 3 events and have two entries in the K1 event.

      Wrestling will have a completely new format, I do not like the changes. ranking isn't really a good idea in this sport, this will force wrestlers to compete in so many events to collect points. which is not good for their health. specially with the current UWW ranking points distribution system which is plain stupid   they are also gifting 18 quotas to very weak countries by that last qualification event. but I understand their point of view. can't wait to see lots of Russian wrestlers compete for weak countries for that 1 available quota.

      Canoe Slalom Quotas from men's/women's K1 have been moved to men's/women's KX1. K1 will now have 14 quotas while KX1 will have 10 quotas. C1 remains at 17 quotas. Athletes may participate in other events up to a maximum of 2 athletes per NOC.   The World Championship qualifier has been dropped in favour of the Olympic Qualification Rankings (7 K1, 10 C1, 3 KX1), afterwards you have the Continental Qualifiers (1 per boat) and then a new Global Qualifier (2 per boat).   There were a few changes regarding ways to ensure an athlete can only obtain 1 quota. The biggest being at each stage the boat priority is K1 > KX1 > C1 for the rankings and KX1 > K1 > C1 for the continental/global qualifiers. This basically means if the same athlete qualifiers in multiple boats then the quota will be given to the kayak over canoe.

      I'll post significant changes periodically. I'll start with the recently added/updated documents.   Archery The addition of mixed compound (12M & 12W) forced a reduction on the recurve side. The mixed compound quotas are distributed as follows   Host - 1 World Championships - 3 Continental Games - 5 World Ranking List - 2 Final Qualifier - 1   To compensate the team events will now only have 8 nations. 2 quotas were removed from the World Ranking List and 2 were removed from the Final Qualifier.   Individual recurve and mixed recurve distribution is the same
