Talk:Sailing at the 2024 Summer Olympics – Qualification

Qualification criteria - Africa, Oceania
The qualification rules state that, for an event to be a valid qualifier, there must be one more unqualified country participating in a qualification event than the number of quota places available.

For instance, the women's kite event in Africa was offering one quota place for the Olympics and there was only one competitor. So I don't believe that is a valid qualification event and the quota place will revert to the Last Chance Regatta.

Similarly, in Oceania, there are several events where there are not enough unqualified countries entered to make a valid qualifier.

The rules are hidden in the fine print, but at the top of this page, the criteria is set out. -- https://d2cx26qpfwuhvu.cloudfront.net/sailingparis2024/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/21154600/Sailing-Paris-2024-Qualification-System-World-Sailing-Olympic-Qualification-Events_20221221.pdf

Before this page gets out of sync with the actual qualification status, perhaps these rules should be reviewed in more detail and World Sailing should be queried about which events are valid qualifiers. Grover222 (talk) 20:09, 12 December 2023 (UTC)
