Qualification system
There were ten teams in total (five per gender), with 17 players on each team. Participating nations were able to select whether they wished to participate in either the men's or women's ice hockey tournament according to the running order based on a joint under-18 world ranking established after the Men's and Women's U18 World Championships in 2015. Norway, as the host nation, was allowed to participate with one team of each gender.{{cite news|title=Youth Olympic teams set|url=http://webarchive.iihf.com/sv/channels1516/yog/news/news-singleview/?tx_ttnews%5Btt_news%5D=9966&cHash=fb48358c45261ccdd5d669a63b4e5fa5|publisher=IIHF|date=13 August 2015|access-date=26 December 2018|archive-date=26 December 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181226093750/http://webarchive.iihf.com/sv/channels1516/yog/news/news-singleview/?tx_ttnews%5Btt_news%5D=9966&cHash=fb48358c45261ccdd5d669a63b4e5fa5|url-status=dead}}
