Summer Olympics appearances ( overview) | |
The Philippines is scheduled to compete at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris from 26 July to 11 August 2024, celebrating the centenary of the team's debut in the same city. Filipino athletes have appeared in every edition of the Summer Olympic Games from 1924 onwards, except for Moscow 1980 as part of the American-led boycott.
Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas (SBP) president Al Panlilio would be initially appointed as the chef de mission for the Philippine delegation for the 2024 Summer Olympics back in 2022. [1] In February 2023, Panlilio would be replaced by Philippine Rowing Association honorary chairman and Cavite governor Jonvic Remulla for the role. [2]
The Philippines aims to qualify as many as twenty athletes. They would hope to qualify more sportspeople in swimming, taekwondo, rowing, shooting, wrestling, cycling, and judo. [3] The national football team advanced to the second round of AFC Women's Olympic Qualifying Tournament, but failed to qualify. [4] The Gilas Pilipinas men's basketball team also reached the semi-finals of the FIBA Olympic Qualifying Tournament in Latvia but was not able to secure a spot at the Olympics. [5]
In January 2024, the delegation was put at risk of facing a ban on using the Philippine flag at the Games after the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) tagged the Philippine Sports Commission for non-compliance with doping regulations. [6] The tagging would be disputed and referred to the Court of Arbitration for Sport. [7] The issue would be resolved by March 2024 when WADA cleared the Philippines. [8] [9]
The Philippine delegation in late June 2024 started a one-month training camp in Metz in France, as opposed to prior editions where Filipino athletes would come to the host country a just a few days prior to the Games. [10] [11] The training venue was secured in early 2024. [12]
The Philippine delegation originally proposed weightlifter Hidilyn Diaz as their flagbearer for the opening ceremony since in honor of her winning the country's first ever Olympic gold medal in the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo. Since Diaz has failed to qualify and organizers insists that flagbearers should be competing athletes, Boxers Nesthy Petecio and Carlo Paalam were designated for the role instead by virtue of being the country's two silver medalists in the last edition. [13]

[15] Hurdlers, John Cabang and Lauren Hoffman would qualify through world rankings. [16] [17]

The Philippines entered five boxers (two men and three women) for Paris 2024. Eumir Marcial qualified for the games through reaching the final of middleweight division at the 2022 Asian Games in Hangzhou, China. [18] [19] Later on, Aira Villegas (women's flyweight) and Nesthy Petecio (women's featherweight) qualified themselves to the games, by winning the quota bouts round, in their respective division, at the 2024 World Olympic Qualification Tournament 1 in Busto Arsizio, Italy. [20] [21] Carlo Paalam and Hergie Bacyadan also qualified by winning the quota bouts round in men's featherweight and women's middleweight divisions, respectively, at the 2024 World Olympic Qualification Tournament 2 in Bangkok, Thailand. [22] [23]
A formal appeal to the IOC was made so that retired professional boxer Manny Pacquiao could compete. This was denied with the IOC refusing to waive the age limit for competitors and requirement to participate in the qualifiers. [24]

Hidilyn Diaz, the Philippines' first ever Olympic gold medalist, notably failed to qualify. Competing in the now scrapped women's 55 kg class back in the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, Diaz moved to 59 kg. Ando would qualify at her expense, since each country can only qualify one weightlifter per weight division through the OQR. [39]
Rosegie Ramos reportedly also qualified but would shortly after fall outside the top 10 of the IWF Olympic Qualification Ranking at eleventh place. [40] Her qualification was denied by the IWF. [41]
