Grassmarket 2,715 Posted January 18, 2022 #21 Share Posted January 18, 2022 2 hours ago, Olympian1010 said: I don’t think countries are allowed to field anyone from Nordic Combined for the team event. At least, based off this line from the qualification document: “Participation in the Men’s Team and Mixed Team events are only available to athletes who have qualified to participate in the individual Ski Jumping events in the OIympic Winter Games Beijing 2022.” Seems a bit odd when people are regularly drafted into CC relay teams from biathlon, which is a completely different federation.

dcro 10,172 Posted January 18, 2022 #23 Share Posted January 18, 2022 Finland refused reallocation. Apparently they are not so desperate to send Janne Ahonen just to have a team. NearPup 1 #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It also should mean that there will be, at best, 9 entries for the team events in Ski Jumping and Nordic Combined “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

Looks like will get one each to complete the team. Well done Ukraine. This would cover nations with 3 individuals qualified. Next up would be nations with 2 individuals, presumably, and the first in line would be - . EDIT: Looks like they are already using those 5 extra spots. Nevermind then. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IoNuTzZ 289 Posted January 18, 2022 #26 Share Posted January 18, 2022 And now it’s official we will have 2 ski jumpers in men’s competition(Andrei Feldorean and Daniel Cacina). Trebron92 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Linha 459 Posted January 19, 2022 #27 Share Posted January 19, 2022 Anežka Indrácková 15y.o. female jumper won the national championships yesterday and as accepted the third female quota, most likely she will be the one be jumping alongside her sister Karolína and Klara Ulrichová..... Nice improvement from 0 in Pyeongchang to 3 i Beijing 💪💪 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monzanator 3,569 Posted January 19, 2022 #28 Share Posted January 19, 2022 After accepted the two quotas there are still two places to be accepted. & are the first in line (both would have three athletes each if they do). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monzanator 3,569 Posted January 19, 2022 #29 Share Posted January 19, 2022 & have accepted the quota so both have 3 athletes in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monzanator 3,569 Posted January 20, 2022 #30 Share Posted January 20, 2022 Some new positive COVID cases. D.A. Tande, F.Villumstad & J.A. Forfang + P.Zyla. Polish team was supposed to leave on January 31st but athletes need four negative tests upon arrival and the oldest only five days prior to arrival. So this will be a very close run thing. Several top names have withdrawn from Titisee-Neustadt World Cup this coming weekend including Marius Lindvik who was in close contact with Tande but hasn't tested positive yet.
