Sec. 220512. Complete teams

    In obtaining representation for the United States in each 
competition and event of the Olympic Games, Paralympic Games, and Pan-
American Games, the corporation, either directly or by delegation to the 
appropriate national governing body or paralympic sports organization, 
may select, but is not obligated to select (even if not selecting will 
result in an incomplete team for an event), athletes who have not met 
the eligibility standard of the national governing body and the 
Corporation,\1\ when the number of athletes who have met the eligibility 
standards of such entities is insufficient to fill the roster for an 
event.
