Vatican Athletics

[3] As of March 2023, cricket and Paralympic sports teams have become part of Vatican Athletics, with plans to also incorporate fencing, basketball and potentially football.

[9] As a national team, Vatican Athletics are aiming to participate in the Games of the Small States of Europe.

[7] They attempted to make a debut in the 2019 edition, but they, along with the Faroe Islands, were barred from participating due to an absence of a national Olympic committee.

[10] In 2021, the International Cycling Union was the first Olympic sports federation to admit Vatican Athletics to their ranks.

A team consisting of five athletes represented the Vatican City at the 2024 Championships of the Small States of Europe in Gibraltar, winning one bronze medal.
