... is announced to be Kevin114514,fake_banana,Z-301,NKheyuxiang! The full standings are available here, and the tasks for the team selection have been published here.

As you may notice from the scoreboard, this year's China Team Selection problems were exceptionally challenging. We will be adding English statements to the judge so that more participants can try these tasks, but, keep in mind that the contests are intentionally designed to be significantly more difficult than the IOI itself — even the strongest contestant in China scored only around 130 points.

In the past three years we have organized joint team training sessions with several delegations prior to the IOI. We will see the possibility of holding similar events again this year.

Huge thanks to all the problem setters for their tremendous efforts in preparing the team selection contests, and best of luck to the team members at IOI 2026!

My slot to Kevin114514 for his hardwork.

He will get the reward of it in IOI, after winning it.
