British Virgin Islands at the 2024 Summer Olympics

The British Virgin Islands competed at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris, France, which were held from 26 July to 11 August 2024.

The territory's participation in Paris marked its eleventh appearance at the Summer Olympics since its debut in 1984.

The athletes that were awarded the scholarship were sprinter Rikkoi Brathwaite, shot putter Eldred Henry, sprinter Adaejah Hodge, sailor Thad Lettsome, long jumper Chantel Malone, and hurdler Kyron McMaster.

[9] Though not part of the official delegation, the Minister for Education, Youth Affairs and Sports Sharie De Castro attended the Games from 1 to 10 August 2024.

[12] McMaster qualified for the Games on 20 July at the 2023 P-T-S Meeting in Banská Bystrica, Slovakia, running 47.26 seconds in the men's 400 metres hurdles—under the 48.70-second Olympic entry standard.

[17] Two days later, he raced in the first semifinal and ran in a time of 10.15 seconds, placing eighth out of the nine people in his heat and did not qualify for the finals.

[18] Noah Lyles of the United States eventually won the gold in a time of 9.784 seconds.

He ran a season best-setting time of 47.79 seconds and placed fifth, the highest position for a British Virgin Islander athlete at the Games.

[27][28] Track & road events The territory received a universality slot from World Sailing to send one male Laser sailor for the Games, which allows a National Olympic Committee to send athletes despite not meeting the standard qualification criteria.

[31] During the lead-up to the Games, Lettsome graduated from Tulane University with a degree in real estate development.

[32][33] Lettsome's qualification marked the territory's recurrence to the sport since the 1996 Summer Olympics, when Robert Hirst competed in the same event.
