Throughout the history of the Games, Kuwait has won a total of 248 medals, including 40 gold, 65 silver, and 143 bronze medals. However, the country had to wait until the fifth edition of the Arab Games, in 1976, to secure its first medals. That edition remains Kuwait’s best performance in terms of overall ranking, as the nation finished in fourth place. In terms of total medals won, Kuwait’s most successful campaign came at the twelfth edition, the 2011 Arab Games in Doha, where it collected 63 medals overall.
