Best Answer

The first Olympics that New Zealand athletes attended were the 1908 Games in London. This was in a combined NZ/ Australian team which competed under the banner of 'Australasia'. The 1912 Games in Stockholm also saw NZ compete alongside Australia. New Zealand's first Games as an individual NZ team were the 1920 Games in Antwerp, Belgium.
