There was a lone athlete representing India at the 1900 Games in Paris. His name was Norman Pritchard (born in Calcutta) and he won silver medals in the 200 meter dash and 200 meter hurdles. The first year India sent a team of athletes to the Olympics was the 1920 Games in Antwerp. India has competed in every Summer Olympics since 1920.
