History

Cyprus made its first Summer Olympic appearance in 1980 and has competed ever since. The nation sends a small delegation of athletes, about 15 to each Olympics. The athletes typically compete in athletics, sailing, shooting and swimming. Cyprus has won one medal in its history, a silver medal at the 2012 Olympics where sailor Pavlos Kontides finished second in the men’s laser class event.
