Notes for Junior Skiers:

- Junior Boys Under 18 and Under 20 (who both ski 7.5km) will be automatically entered in the Senior Men's Championship event (who also ski 7.5km) and thus could be both the overall Junior Boys Champion and the Overall Senior Men Champion for that event.

- Junior Girls Under 18 and Under 20 (who all ski 7.5km) will be automatically entered in the Senior Women's Championship event (who also ski 7.5km) and thus could be both the Overall Junior Girl Champion and the Overall Senior Women Champion for that event.
