- Sri Lanka at the Olympics
Sri Lanka first participated at the Olympic Games in 1948, and has sent a delegation to every Summer Olympic Games since then, except for the 1976 Games. Sri Lanka has never participated in the Winter Olympic Games.
Sri Lankan athletes have won a total of two Olympic medals, both in athletics.
The National Olympic Committee for Sri Lanka was created in 1937 and recognized by the International Olympic Committee that same year. The nation was designated as "Ceylon" (country code "CEY") until 1972.
