becoming a sport representing of Monaco

Hello,

I live in adjacent villages to Monaco, and I am not a French citizen (I am from another EU country). I am wondering about the path to be able to represent Monaco in a sport.

what's the path for it, apart from reaching the top tier/elite level?

I understand that for the olympics, there is the need for citizenship to be granted, but some other competitions, like Small States Games?

Don't want to share the sport, because it's niche, but it is a summer olympic sport, and present at Mediterranean and small states games.

There are many monaguesque athletes who changed their nationality to represent Monaco (swimming, table tennis to name two), but I am wondering about the "how".

Also - reading everything that you share here in the group about the cost of living for newcomers, do you know if the represent ants actually live in Monaco, or just train here, while living in more affordable places?

Again, don't mean the Tennis or AS Monaco athletes who can probably afford to live there, but I mean the less paid sports, like bobsleigh, swimming or ping-pong.
