There are four events in sprint and slalom each (K1 and C1 for both genders). All athletes qualifying for an event must compete in the same event in the other discipline (slalom or sprint) or risk disqualification. There were two events: the 2013 Junior Sprint World Championships in Welland, Ontario and the 2013 Junior slalom championship in Liptovsky Mikulas, Slovakia were quotas were awarded. Every continent must be represented in each event. A total of 64 athletes will compete, including 10 spots reserved for universality (5 per gender) and 2 for the hosts (which they will need to decide which event to use the quotas in).

Schedule

The schedule was released by the Nanjing Youth Olympic Games Organizing Committee.
