Bolivia (BOL)

Bolivia formed a National Olympic Committee on 17 June 1932, being recognized by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) in 1936. In the same year, Bolivia had a single swimmer, Alberto Conrad and an unnamed artist at the 1936 Olympics in Berlin, but the nation did not compete at the Summer Olympics again until 1964. It has since competed continuously, with the exception of Moskva 1980. Despite their appearance at 15 Olympic Summer Games, Bolivia has been represented by only 92 Olympic athletes, with their largest contingent being 11, at München 1972. Bolivian athletes have not yet won an Olympic medal, but at the 2010 Youth Olympic Games, the Bolivian Under-15 football team won the gold medal in that inaugural competition.

Bolivia has also competed seven times at the Olympic Winter Games, sending skiers in 1956, 1980, 1984, 1988, 1992, 2018, and 2022. At the Winter Games, Bolivian athletes have competed only in Alpine and cross-country skiing, while in the Summer Games they have competed in 14 different sports.
