Mixed-NOCs
Mixed-NOCs (IOC code: MIX) are Youth Olympic Games teams consisting of athletes representing different National Olympic Committees (NOCs). The concept of mixed-NOCs was introduced at the 2010 Summer Youth Olympics, in which athletes from different nations would compete in the same team.[1] It was also used in multiple sports at the 2016 Winter Youth Olympics.[2][3]
