Sometimes I wonder how stupid must be the internal qualification criteria ..... Sorry to speak about the strict criteria of NOC .... But I suppose your country is not the only having some "stupid" rules .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get wanting to turn down continental quotas or base quotas for uncompetitive athletes, but it really annoys me when there are X spots available in an event, an athlete is in the top X eligible athletes and their NOC just says "nah, not good enough". It just makes the event worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jan Linha 470 Posted January 18, 2022 #86 Share Posted January 18, 2022 For unknown reasons, refused 2 female quotas even though the name list was announced 4 days ago including 7 female athletes. On FIS, there are only 5 female athletes confirmed ..... Not sure why or what happened. But internal information is that they qualified 7 female athletes and they also listed them as officially nominated: Kateřina Janatová, Tereza Beranová, Petra Hynčicová, Petra Nováková, Zuzana Holíková, Barbora Antošová, Sandra Schützová ahjfcshfghb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spain asked for a TOP100 in the ranking or 2 top30 in WorldCup or 2 top15 in EuropeanCup, that's why they rejected the female quota More stupid is the reason why we rejected the 3rd male quota... cause they asked for two TOP20 finished in TeamSprint and they only got one... and a 21st place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heywoodu 13,540 Posted January 18, 2022 #88 Share Posted January 18, 2022 With 8 women's quota being rejected, Latvia should be getting another one now (they're 9th, but Austria rejected two and is ahead of them in the reallocation list).
