Yep, always right after the Team Captain's Meeting (where the draw is done), which is usually held roughly between 17:00 and 19:00 local time. They do the draw at the TCM and once the TCM is finished, the lists are published rather quickly.

 

Usually there is a PDF for the allocation of the shooting range for trainings a day earlier, which is usually mostly interesting in the IBU Cup to see if there's any new or rare nation participating  

Speaking of range allocation, I see China missing, Romania.

 

There's Serbia and Greece in though

I read that China is having some issues, COVID and military related to getting biathletes out of the country.  I know some Romanians tested positive for COVID, so that might be why they are not there.

 

Glad to see that Greece and Serbia are there.

Romania missing is a little surprising, I'm sure they were in those Swedish races last week or so?

 

Ah, COVID. Not at all surprised by Greece, I believe Angelis is usually there, but Serbia is interesting.

Wasn't there one Korean who switched to Serbia?

This put just even more respect for Kuzmina, who wanted to learn Slovak language before acquiring citizenship and turning to a slovak sport queen.
