These Olympics saw Portugal listing the biggest share of competitors in the athletics, but also debuting in the tennis and badminton events, recently elevated to Olympic sports, as with the women's judo. It also participated in the
roller hockey tournament (demonstration sport), as current world champions, but finishing just outside the podium, adding another misfortune to this nation's Olympic campaign in Barcelona. A growth in the number of competing athletes and swimmers was also a highlight.Results by event
