Table Tennis Qualification for Summer Olympic Games 2016


Recommended Posts

We will have only USA and Canada at North American qualification.

 

North and South America should be merged in table tennis. Maybe with similar system to Asia where one quota is guaranteed for both North and South American while the other 7 quotas are contested between everyone else.

Totally agree... I mean, the quotas in women's are already defined: one will go to USA (Yue WU qualified in the Pan American Games) with the other two going to Canada.

 

The only real contest here is to determine if USA or CANADA will get 2 participants in men's and get the regional spot in the respective team event.

There will only be two quotas available in women's table tennis since we used one for the Pan Am Games.

 

Technically Bermuda and US Virgin Islands can compete in North America too.

 

That probably won’t happen without objection from both North and Latin America. Neither continent will want to lose their team quota, but the more pressing issue is that we wouldn’t be guaranteed to keep the nine individual quotas given to both continents.

American Lily Zhang qualified yesterday. Interesting to note that she competed at Summer Olympics in London, two years later she competed at Youth Summer Olympics in Nanjing and now she is going to Rio. :d

United States will likely qualify a team quota in both the men's and women's events. Too bad, I thought Canada could have gotten the men's team.

    • sure! in every Italian bedroom you normally have every kind of table, chairs, furniture, tv screen  to me, this really look an unfinished room, you normally don't see such a sad place even when you buy a new house 
    • 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 The World Championships has been replaced by the Olympic Qualification Rankings.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
