2024 IHF Men's Olympic Qualification Tournaments
The 2024 IHF Men's Olympic Qualification Tournaments were held from 14 to 17 March 2024. Four teams took part in each tournament, with the two best-ranked teams qualifying for the 2024 Summer Olympics. Croatia, Germany, Hungary, Norway, Slovenia and Spain qualified for the Olympics.[1]
Format
<section begin=Format/>There were three qualifying tournaments. Only twelve eligible teams through the five events mentioned above qualified for these tournaments:[2][3]
- The top six teams from the World championship that did not already qualify through their continental championships were eligible to participate in the tournament.
- The highest-ranked teams of each continent in the World championship represented the continent in order to determine the continental ranking. The first-ranked continent (Europe) received two more places for the tournament. The second (Africa), third (Asia), and fourth (Americas)-ranked continents received one place each. The last place belongs to a team from Oceania, if one was ranked between 8 and 12th at the World Championship. As no team from Oceania met this condition, the second-ranked continent received an extra place instead. The teams that already earned their places through their World championship ranking were not considered for receiving places through the continental criterion. In such cases, the access list was rebalanced accordingly.
- The twelve teams were allocated in three pools of four teams according to the table below. The top two teams from each pool qualified for the 2024 Olympic Games.[4]
