Equatorial Guinea participated in eight Summer Olympic Games between its début at the 1984 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles, United States and the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, England. No Equatoguinean athlete has ever won a medal at the Olympic Games. Equatorial Guinea participated in the London Summer Olympics from 27 July to 12 August 2012. The nation sent two athletes to the London Games: athletics competitors Benjamín Enzema and Bibiana Olama; the latter was chosen to be the flag bearer for both the opening and closing ceremonies. The country's Olympic women's football team was disqualified from their qualification stage after it was discovered that they fielded an ineligible player. The Equatorial Guinea delegation was led by the NOC president Manuel Sabino Asumu Kawan and the country's Ambassador in London, Mari-Cruz Evuna Andeme. The athletes were coached by Jose Moises Bodipo Minter, and the competitors said that despite training being difficult in Equatorial Guinea, they wanted to establish a good reputation for their country.
