Description

As British Honduras, this country formed a National Olympic Committee in 1967, and made three Olympic appearances in 1968, 1972, and 1976. As Belize, it has been represented at all the Olympic Games beginning in 1984, after boycotting the 1980 Olympic Games. Belize has never competed at the Olympic Winter Games and has not yet won an Olympic medal. Their athletes have competed in eight Olympic sports: track & field athletics, boxing, canoeing, cycling, judo, shooting, taekwondo, and weightlifting.

The best performances by a Belizean athlete are likely by Kenneth Medwood, who advanced to the semi-finals of the men’s 400 metres hurdles in 2012, and Jonathan Williams, who had advanced to the semi-finals of the same event four years earlier.
