Summer Olympics appearances (overview) | |
Saint Kitts and Nevis competed at the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, United Kingdom from 27 July to 12 August 2012. This was the nation's fifth consecutive appearance at the Olympics.
The St. Kitts and Nevis Olympic Committee sent a total of seven athletes to the Games, six men and one woman, to compete in athletics. Two of these athletes did not compete at these Games. Sprinter Tameka Williams withdrew from the games after admitting using a banned substance. Meanwhile, veteran sprinter Kim Collins, who carried the nation's flag for the third time at the opening ceremony, was sent home by the sporting committee, reportedly for spending the night with his wife at a London hotel.[1]
