Looks like Germany will have a team of 144 athletes. Interestingly, it only has 10 alpine skiiers even though they accepted 12 quotas and they also are only sending one man in snowboard halfpipe even though they accepted 3 quotas.

It's a richmen's world.... I mean, one thing is to name an athlete and have it at the Olympics just as a backup, quite another is to accept quotas with zero intention of using them!

 

Though, let's wait, entry deadline is next week so maybe CAN/GER are leaving something out for the last minute.

Canada is final... they claim its an error on the FIS end

@Topicmaster1010:BEL NOC confirmed a delegation of 19 earlier today. They didn’t list a female alpine skier, so I don’t know what’s going on with that. Link: https://teambelgium.be/fr/nouvelle/la-selection-du-team-belgium-pour-beijing-2022-compte-19-athletes

So it actually looks like :SWE Sweden is leaving women's alpine skiing quotas and one men's ski cross quota unused. If that's the case, then their team size is 114 instead of 117. Their rivals team size also seems to be final.

 

:NOR Norway: 81

Alpine Skiing: 12

Biathlon: 12

Cross-Country Skiing: 16

Curling: 6

Freestyle Skiing: 6

Nordic Combined: 5

Ski Jumping: 8

Snowboarding: 4

Speed Skating: 12

 

Again, two unused alpine skiing quotas.

 

:ISR Israel: 8

Alpine Skiing: 2

Bobsleigh: 2

Figure Skating: 3

Short Track: 1

 

The Israeli NOC site says they qualified a two-man bobsleigh team so it would seem that someone rejected but not sure who.

 

I'll update if there's any changes to any of these teams sizes.

@Topicmaster1010 where did you see the announcement that Israel qualified in bobsleigh? I can’t find anything about it.
