San Marino competed at the2016 Summer Olympics inRio de Janeiro, Brazil, from 5 to 21 August 2016. Since the nation's official debut in1960, Sammarinese athletes have appeared in every edition of theSummer Olympic Games, except for a single occasion. San Marino failed to register any athletes at the1964 Summer Olympics in Tokyo.
San Marino National Olympic Committee (Italian:Comitato Olimpico Nazionale Sammarinese, CONS) sent a team of four athletes, two per gender, to compete only in athletics and shooting at the Games, matching the nation's roster size with four previous editions, includingLondon 2012.[2] All of them made their Olympic debut in Rio de Janeiro, except for trap shooter and London 2012 fourth-place finalistAlessandra Perilli, who only returned for her second Games as the most experienced competitor. Meanwhile, Alessandra's older sisterArianna Perilli led the delegation as San Marino's flag bearer in the opening ceremony.[1] San Marino, however, had to wait five more years for its first medal.
San Marino has received auniversality slot fromIAAF to send a male athlete to the Olympics.[3][4][5]
