Team line-ups for the 1976 Women's Chess Olympiad

The tables show the line-up of the teams at the 1976 Women's Chess Olympiad in Haifa . The 23 participating national teams initially played in four preliminary round groups. Two teams in each of these groups qualified for the final tournaments A and B. The other teams made it to the C final. In the tables, the final position is given for each team, next to it is the final tournament reached. The team balances are listed separately for the preliminary and final round, whereas the individual balances of the players are shown in the sum of both tournament phases. Each team consisted of three players and a maximum of one substitute player. For the placement of the teams, the board points in front of the team points, the direct comparison and the Sonneborn-Berger rating were decisive.
