Chile at the Olympics
Chile at the Olympic Games is represented by the Chilean Olympic Committee (COCh), founded in 1934, in charge of promoting the preparation, selection and participation of Chilean athletes.
Chile has 127 years of Olympic history. The first presence of a Chilean athlete in the main international multi-sport event occurred in April 1896, during the Athens Olympic Games, being the first Ibero-American country to participate.
After missing three editions, Chile organized for the first time a delegation to compete in Stockholm 1912. Since then, it has attended all the Summer Olympic Games, except those held in Los Angeles 1932 and Moscow 1980 —due to its serious economic crisis, aftermath of the Great Depression, and its adherence to a political boycott promoted by the United States against the Soviet Union in the Cold War, respectively—, completing twenty-four participations. Likewise, since Sankt-Moritz 1948, Chile has attended all the Winter Olympic Games, except those that took place in Sapporo 1972 and Lake Placid 1980, totaling seventeen presences.
Since 1912, Chile has had eight representatives on the International Olympic Committee (IOC): Óscar García Guerra (1912-1919), Carlos Silva Vildósola (1920-1922), Jorge Matte Gormaz (1923-1928), Alfredo Ewing Acuña (1929-1933), Enrique Barbosa Baeza (1948-1950), Alejandro Rivera Bascur (1955 and 1985), Sergio Santander Fantini (1992-1999) and Neven Ilic (2017-present).

History of medals
The first medal
A Chilean athlete stood on the Olympic podium for the first time in Amsterdam in 1928. There, the hairless supplementer Manuel Plaza participated in the marathon. After having finished sixth at the Coulombes Stadium in Paris in 1924, the 28-year-old marathoner, with the running of the test, managed to surpass 79 other competitors.
Although legend has it that Manuel Plaza got lost on the way to the Stadium —which would have allowed Algerian Ahmed Boughèra El Ouafi to take first place—, what really happened is that, from the beginning, Plaza He was left behind by severe knee discomfort; once surpassed, Plaza climbed the positions until reaching second place without ever reaching the leader of the race. Finally, Plaza reached the silver medal when he crossed the finish line at 2 hours 33 minutes and 23 seconds after having traveled 42,195 kilometers.
Equestrian medals
The opportunity came in Helsinki 1952 thanks to horse riding, specifically show jumping. There, on August 2, 1952, members of the Chilean Carabineros, Lieutenant César Mendoza and Captain Óscar Cristi, together with Army Captain Ricardo Echeverría , participated in the team category. Cristi in Bambi, Mendoza in Pillán and Echeverría in Lindo Peal reached the compromise.

Cristi participated again with his horse Bambi in the individual jump. However, they knocked down one of the hurdles in the tiebreaker stage, reaching the silver medal, while the gold medal was won by Frenchman Jacques D. 'Oriola in Alí Babá. Chile had won 2 silver medals in the same competition and in the same Games.
Boxing and the "Silver Girl"
In 1956, the venue for the Olympic Games was Melbourne, Australia, the first city in the southern hemisphere to host them. There, a young Chilean woman paraded as the national standard-bearer: Marlene Ahrens. On November 28 of that year, Ahrens threw her javelin at 50.38 meters, winning both the national record and the South American and the only female Chilean silver medal.
However, this would not be the only medal for Chile in those games. Chilean boxing arrived at the Olympic Games with three representatives.
The first, Claudio Barrientos, after defeating the Pole Zenon Stefaniuk and the Brazilian Eder Jofré, faced the South Korean Jong in the semifinals. The judges' cards declared Jong the winner, but journalists and specialists point out that Barrientos had been superior. Barrientos finally obtained the bronze medal in the bantamweight category.
The second, the medium-heavyweight Carlos Lucas, arrived in Melbourne without any expectations, after reaching second place in the Latin American championship in Lima. The young amateur from Villarrica, however, managed to obtain the second bronze medal in boxing in Australia, in the light heavyweight category.
The third, the Antofagasta Ramón Tapia, knocked down the Pole Pyorkovski with a right hand in the first blow. Subsequently, he defeated the Czechoslovakian Torna by a second-round knockout. He reached the final against the Russian Chatkov. However, the Soviet knocked down the Chilean, obtaining the silver medal in the middleweight category.
Iruarrizaga's shot

During the days of the competition, Alfonso de Iruarrizaga had excelled in the skeet modality. There he began to measure himself with the German Alex Wegner. After two series, the Chilean surpassed the German by 149 against 148 shots out of a total of 150. For the final series, both qualified with 198 out of a total of 200, followed by Danny Carlisle, from the United States, with 197; Jorge Guardiola, from Spain; José Agustín Ávila, from Ecuador; Juergen Raabe, from East Germany; and Weizang Shang, from the People's Republic of China, all with 196.
At the same time that Carl Lewis and Ben Johnson ran at the Olympic Stadium in Seoul, the skeet shot took place on the outskirts of the South Korean capital. Irruarrizaga missed two cymbals in positions one and six, totaling 23 perfect targets. Wegner hit 24, he also missed one, obtaining the gold and leaving Irruarrizaga with the silver medal.

Chile tied 1:1 with the Brazilians and then defeated the Ecuadorian national team 2:1 and the Venezuelan team 3:0; however, the Colombian team swept the Chileans 5:1.

The match ended 9:0 in favor of the locals and, with that result, Chile qualified second in its group to the second phase.

Already in the games, on September 14, 2000, Chile faced the Moroccan team, defeating it 4:1 with three goals from Zamorano and one from Navia. Three days later, at the same Melbourne sub-venue, goals from Olarra and Navia (2) marked the final 3:1 with which the Spanish team, one of the favorites after the gold medal, was defeated. In Adelaide, South Korea defeated the South American team 1:0, but in any case, Chile qualified as the leader of group B.
On the 23rd, in the quarterfinals, Chile faced Nigeria. Contreras, Zamorano, Navia and Tello scored, getting the 4:1 with which they prevailed against the African team.
