I'm brand new to watching figure skating, I've read your guides and they're the most useful introduction I've found, thank you so much! I have a question about whether my country (Britain) is still able to qualify for the Olympics. It seems they have missed out on the initial qualification via the Worlds but there is still an opportunity via the Nebelhorn Trophy. However, it's not clear to me how a skater qualifies to compete for the Nebelhorn Trophy and whether that's a possible route for GB?
Yes, Great Britain will have a chance to qualify skaters to the Olympics at Nebelhorn. According to the 2017 Nebelhorn Trophy official announcement, essentially any country that wishes to qualify spots can send skaters to Nebelhorn. Each country is only allowed to send 1 skater/team per discipline. The top 6 singles skaters, top 4 pairs, and top 5 ice dance teams will earn one Olympic spot each for their country.
I don’t know exactly which skaters GB will send to Nebelhorn, however. I imagine the fed has their own policies for that.
