The top eight teams in each event qualified five gymnasts each. Teams 9-13 each qualified two gymnasts each. A further seven spots were available (per gender) for individual qualification (with a maximum of one quota per gender per nation). However, only 12 nations entered the men's team event. This meant that the two additional quotas were allocated to the individual qualification (bringing the total to nine available spots). However, only eight nations had entered the individual event and thus the ninth-place finishing team received an additional quota (three total). In the women's event only eleven nations entered the team event which mean an additional four quotas were available in the individual event. However, only ten nations were entered in that event, meaning the ninth place team also got three spots.[1]
