Qualification

Toni-Seelos-Olympiaschanze at the 2012 Winter Youth Olympics

Nations scoring points in the Marc Holder Trophy were guaranteed one athlete as was the host nation (8 countries). The remaining spots were distributed according to the normal hill results from the World Junior Championships. There were 25 spots reserved for the boys' competition but due to reallocation it was only 24.[2] The updated quota spots were announced on December 13, 2011, which are subject to change.[3]
