 Ireland (1930)

Northern Ireland at the 1938 British Empire Games (abbreviated NIR) was the second time that the nation had participated at the Games following an appearance in 1934.[1] Only four athletes were sent during a time of political change that saw the Irish Free State recently becoming Ireland.[2]

The Games were held in Sydney, Australia from 5 to 12 February 1938 and Northern Ireland was unplaced in the medal table, being one of five nations (out of 15) that did not win a medal.[3]
