Sport climbing

The United States qualified two sport climbers based on their second-place and third-place finishes in the youth A combined event of the 2017 World Youth Sport Climbing Championships.[19]

However neither Shiraishi nor Raboutou was included in the final list of starting athletes for the Summer Youth Olympics.[20] The US Olympic Committee declined to allow them to participate, citing a fixed limit on the total number of athletes that it could send to all events, and a low prioritization of the climbing event based on the fact that, as a sport new to the Olympics, USA Climbing had applied for recognition by the USOC but not yet received it.[21]

Swimming

United States qualified eight swimmers.

Table tennis

The United States qualified two table tennis players based on its performance at the North American Continental Qualifier.[22][23]
