Olympics - Team Ecuador

Background

Ecuador sent three track & field competitors to the 1924 Olympic Games – Alberto Jurado, Alberto Jarrín, and Belisario Villacís – prior to the Ecuadorean National Olympic Committee being formed in 1925. But this organisation did not last long as the International Olympic Committee (IOC) had no knowledge about it in 1928. The attempt of George E. Navarro, the Ecuador 400 metres champion, who attended the University of Southern California at that time, to compete in the 1932 Games was not successful.

A new National Olympic Committee was created on 30 April 1959, which was recognized by the IOC on 25 May of the same year, at their session in München. A gap of 44 years then occurred before Ecuador returned to the Olympics in Mexico City. It has competed continuously since. Ecuador appeared at the Olympic Winter Games for the first time in 2018, with a single competitor. Klaus Jungbluth competed in cross-country skiing in the 15 km freestyle event. At Beijing 2022, Ecuador also competed with a single athlete, this time a woman, Alpine skier Sarah Escobar in the giant slalom event.

In 1967 the Olympic Committee of Ecuador was awarded with the Count Alberto Bonacossa Trophy.^[1]

This is an ongoing project to ensure that all Olympians who represented Ecuador are on Wikitree.

• Connected to their family
• Connected to the Global Tree, if possible
• With profiles that have biographical, family, and sporting information
• Well sourced
