Sporting event delegation
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Oman has competed in 11 Summer Olympic Games. The nation has never competed in the Winter Olympic Games. No Omani athlete has won an Olympic medal.
The Oman Olympic Committee was formed and recognized in 1982.
At the first Summer Youth Games in Singapore in 2010, two young people, a boy and a girl, competed in athletics and equestrian sports. A medal that is not included in Oman's medal tally was won by show jumper Sultan al-Tooqi, who won the silver medal with his horse Joondooree Farms Damiro in the mixed Australasia team.
In 2014 in Nanjing, three young people, two boys and a girl, took part in athletics and beach volleyball.

Khalid bin Mohammed Al Zubair served as president of the Oman Olympic Committee from 2013 to 2018 and was an IOC member from 2017 to 2019 as a respresentative of a National Olympic Committee.[3]
Best result
Oman's best Olympic result is Mohamed Al-Malky's eighth-place finish in the men's 400 metres at the 1988 Summer Olympics.[4]
