Background
The concept of ''mixed-NOCs'' was introduced in theMedal summary
The following medal summary lists all nations whose athletes won a medal while competing for a mixed-NOCs team. If there is more than one athlete from the same nation on a medal-winning team, only one medal of that colour is credited. The summary shows how many events at which a nation had an athlete in a medal-winning mixed-NOCs team.Archery
Athletes were paired off based on their performance during the ranking round of their respective individual events. For example, the 1st ranked boy was paired with the 32nd ranked girl and the 2nd ranked boy was paired with the 31st ranked girl and so on.Athletics
Badminton
Each doubles pair was determine through a draw where an athlete of one gender seeded 1-16 was paired with another athlete seeded 17-32 of the opposite gender.Cycling
NOCs who qualified only two men or women lots were drawn to form combined teams.Diving
Equestrian
Athletes were grouped based on their continental origins. For continents with not enough athletes riders from nearby continents were used (e.g. Ecuador for North America and Hong Kong, Iran and Malaysia for Australasia).Fencing
Nine continental teams were created containing athletes from both genders and all three weapons. Athletes were chosen for each team based on their performance from the individual events. For example, the top ranked athletes from Asia-Oceania in each event were grouped into Asia-Oceania 1 while the second highest ranked athletes from that continent were placed into Asia-Oceania 2.Golf
Initially golf was to not have mixed NOC entrants, however, two teams of mixed nations were created due to not having a partner from their own nation.Judo
13 teams were created and named after judo legends. Teams of 7 or 8 athletes were made by categorizing all athletes by weight and drawing one athlete from each weight group. Other considerations in the draw were medalists were to be evenly separated among all teams and no two athletes from the same nation were on the same team.Modern pentathlon
Shooting
Table tennis
Athletes from nations that were unable to create a team by themselves were first paired off by continent and then intercontinental. The highest ranked boy from one continent was paired with the highest ranked girl from the same continent and so on.Tennis
Athletes from nations that were unable to create a doubles team by themselves were first paired off by region, then zone and then intercontinental. The highest ranked boy from one area was paired with the highest ranked girl from the same area and so on.Triathlon
Based on their performance from the individual events athletes were grouped together by continent while the remaining athletes were grouped together as intercontinental teams. For example, the top two ranked boys and top two girls from Europe were grouped together as Europe 1 while the next two ranked boys and next two ranked girls from Europe were grouped together as Europe 2 and so on.See also
