The United States women's biathlon team will send four athletes to the 2010 Olympic Games in Vancouver.
No U.S. female biathletes has pre-qualified for the Games, i.e. fulfilled one of two early nomination criteria during the 2008-09 season: top-30 status in the overall World Cup standings, or two top-15 results in World Cup or World Championship races.
Other athletes may qualify with a top-30 result in a World Cup and/or IBU Cup races held in December 2009.
