Best Answer

There is a governing body for each sport that oversees the selection of the team for that sport.

That body will organize a qualifying competition shortly before each Olympic games. The top finishers of that competition will then be vetted by the governing body to assess their readiness to compete in the Games.

They have the final say over who's on the team.
