Full list of Pakistan contingent for Paris Olympics 2024

A total of seven athletes will be representing Pakistan at Paris Olympic 2024.

Pakistan will make its 19th appearance at the Summer Olympics when it competes in Paris from July 26 to August 11. The nation has participated in every edition of the Summer Olympics since its debut in 1948, except for the 1980 Summer Olympics in the Soviet Union, which it boycotted as part of the American-led boycott.

The Asian country has also participated in every Winter Olympic Games since the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics, when alpine skier Mohammad Abbas made history by becoming the first Pakistani athlete to qualify for a Winter Olympics event.

Pakistan’s Olympic tally stands at 10, including 3 gold, 3 silver, and 4 bronze medals. All of these medals have been achieved at the Summer Olympics. Pakistan’s men’s field hockey team dominated the era between 1956 and 1992, including a run of five consecutive finals between 1956 and 1972, yielding 2 gold and 3 silver medals.

The 1960 Summer Olympics in Rome was the most successful for Pakistan, with the country winning gold in field hockey and bronze in wrestling. The nation has won two individual bronze medals—one in wrestling and the other in boxing. However, Pakistan hasn’t won a single medal since the 1992 Barcelona Olympics.
