Qualification system

Each nation could send a maximum of 4 athletes (2 boys and 2 girls). The top 7 teams at the 2011 Junior Alpine World Ski Championships in Crans-Montana, Switzerland, plus the hosts Austria were allowed to send the maximum of 4 athletes. The remaining spots were awarded to nations who score points in the Marc Holder Trophy at the said championships. Any remaining quota spots were distributed to nations not already qualified, with a maximum of one boy or girl from one nation. The quota limit was 115, but with reallocation each gender gets one more spot.[3] The updated quota spots were released on December 12, 2011 and are subject to change.[4]
