Grenada competed at the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, United Kingdom from 27 July to 12 August 2012. This was the nation's eighth consecutive appearance at the Olympics. Few weeks before the Games, Grenadian athletes trained at Broadbridge Heath Leisure Centre near Horsham, West Sussex.
Grenada Olympic Committee sent the nation's largest delegation to the Games, with a total of 10 athletes (6 men and 4 women), competing in 4 different sports. Taekwondo jin Andrea St. Bernard, who competed for the nation's Olympic debut in her sport, was the oldest athlete of the team, at age 32. Track runner and world junior champion Kirani James, the youngest athlete at age 19, was Grenada's flag bearer at the opening ceremony, and subsequently, became the nation's first Olympic medalist when he took the gold medal in the Men's 400 metres.[1]
