A total of four athletes (two per gender, and all in track and field) were named to the team in July 2019.[4] The chef de mission of the team was Lester Hanley.[5] During the opening ceremony of the games, high jumper Jermaine Francis carried the flag of the country as part of the parade of nations.[6][7]
Preparation
The St. Kitts and Nevis Olympic Committee financially assisted ten track and field athletes and two table tennis athletes in their quest for attaining qualification standards for the games.[8] The country attempted to qualify in multiple sports, but the team size was smaller compared to four years prior in Toronto, Canada.[9]
