Olympics - Team Uruguay

Background

The National Olympic Committee of Uruguay was formed on 27 October 1923 and recognized by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) in the same year. Uruguay first competed at the 1924 Olympic Games in Paris and has competed at every Games since, with the exception of the 1980 Moskva Olympics. It had only two competitors in 1932 but Douglas Guillermo won a bronze medal in the single sculls rowing.

Uruguay has won 10 Olympic medals to date. Two of these were gold, the outstanding victories by the Uruguayan football (soccer) teams in 1924 and 1928. Eight of the footballers were part of both winning teams, and several later played on the inaugural FIFA World Cup champions in 1930. ^[1]

This is an ongoing project to ensure that all Olympians who represented Uruguay 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
