Team Size Prediction for Winter Olympic Games 2026 Milano Cortina
Ski Sports
Alpine Skiing (5) -
As usual, 3 W & 2 M. Petra Vlhová will be accompanied by 2 other girls, I guess Rebeka Jančová should be one of them, no idea who will be the other one. For the men team, it is going to be again the Žampa bros clan with one last dance for Adam and once again joind by his younger brother Andreas.
Cross Country Skiing (4) -
As always in the last couple of games, I expect a Coubertine-like participation in this sport with a perfect Bach-esque gender equality with 2 M and 2 W in order to start in both Team sprints semifinals. Do not ask me the names, I have absolutely no idea
Ski Jumping (2) -
There a quite solid chance to finally return in this beautiful sport for Slovakia since the extinction of the dinosaurs. The young Kapustík siblings, Hektor and his sister Kira are the biggest chances for this history making, Among women it would be an absolute premiere, plus there a minor chance that Kira Kapustíková may be, if all planets align perfectly accompanied by another girl Tamara Mesíková.
Nordic Combined (0) -
Maybe in Abu Dhabi 2042 or New Trumpopolis 2046
Freestyle Skiing (1) -
Michael Oravec in Freeski Big Air & Slopestyle is the only realistic chance, there some young girls trying ski cross, but still too long way to go here
Snowboarding (2) -
Klaudia Medlová once returned from injuries should qualify for her last games in Big Air + Slopestyle. Among men in the same disciplines we may have an olympic debut with Samuel Jaroš.
Biathlon (6) -
Hopefully with the returns of Paja Fialková (now Batovská) and Nastya Kuzmina we will win enough points to qualify a full female squad alongside the young Ema Kapustová and one of the Remeňová sisters to form a relay. Among men, the situation is more complicated, I hope at least 2 guys will make it (The biggest chances I see for the young talent Borguľa and maybe Sklenárik to join him) to have at least a mixed relay, a full men relay hope is utopic
Ski Mountaineering (2) -
Funny enough, probably our biggest medal chance is this niche sport with Marianna Jagerčíková in W Sprint, alongside her male partner Jakub Šiarnik we should start also in the Mixed relay
Skating Sports
Speed Skating (1) -
There a fresh young czech import who can qualify us for the very first time in this sport, his name is Lukáš Steklý, but since I have zero clue about this sport I can not say how much it is also realistic though
Short Track Speed Skating (0) -
Would be nice to have again a participation in this, we have a couple of talented young girls, but still far from the required level, so probably none again
Figure Skating (1) -
The young Adam Hagara is our solid chance for participating, he will need a good dose of luck in the process though, and as knowing the good old mathematical laws about the equation between Slovakia and Luck it will end by Zero athletes
Sleigh Sports
Luge (5) -
2 guys in Singles with the immortal Highlander Ninis, a pair in Doubles and at least one female should qualify, at least I hope so
Skeleton (0) -
There one kid trying the stuff, but no chance unless he swithc nationality to Benin or Tuvalu for the free pass
Bobsleigh (1) -
Viki Čerňanská I do believe shoud repeat her Olympic experience from Beijing in the monobobs once again
Team Sports
Curling (0) -
lol
Ice Hockey (25) -
Embarassement and national mourning avoided, The National pride qualified again and continue the streak of never missing any winter olympic tournament since the independence. With very likely the most talented generation our hockey ever had, Cortina is a great journey we are looking forward.
Hail to the god Slafkovský everyone
