Forgive me for I am not familiar with international rules..

What does it mean to not qualify the 60kg weight class for the Olympics? (i.e. no representation for this weight at the games?)

How do you qualify a weight class?

I know wrestlers competed at events to qualify for the Olympics at a weight class but I had no idea the weight class had to qualify??..
