Great Britain at the 1908 Summer Olympics
The United Kingdom was the host nation of the 1908 Summer Olympics in London. The British Olympic Association was the National Olympic Committee responsible for organizing the United Kingdom's representation. At the time British athletes competed under the team name "United Kingdom". The British team comprised 676 competitors.〔Telegraph.co.uk, (Team GB first nation entered into London 2012 Olympics ). De Wael counts 682. (1908 Olympians from Great Britain ).〕
A number of Irish athletes boycotted the games in protest at British refusals to grant Irish Home Rule. During the opening ceremony, American athletes did not dip their flag to the British royalty in support of the Irish boycott, a tradition the U.S. continues to this day.〔About.com, (The History of the Olympics: 1908 - London, England )〕
It was the fourth appearance of the country, which has not missed any of the Summer Olympic Games.
