It was Argentina's eleventh World Games, and was one of 102 countries that participated.

The delegation was composed of forty-three athletes, including both males and females, who competed in eight sports.

However, the team didn't receive official support from the Nation's Secretary of Sports, and only athletes who could fund their own trips were able to compete.

Among those who qualified but were not able to attend were the gymnasts Lucas Adorno and Mara Colombo.
