Qualification

[edit]

Each National Olympic Committee (NOC) could enter a maximum of 6 competitors, 3 per gender and one per event. As hosts, Argentina was given 4 quotas, 2 per gender. A further four places, two per gender, were granted by the Tripartite Commission. The remaining 40 places were to be decided in various ways; namely, the Youth Olympic Rankings and two qualification tournaments. Furthermore, all continents are guaranteed at least one athlete representation.[1]

To be eligible to participate in these events, athletes must have been born between 1 January 2001 and 31 December 2002.[1]
