📖 Key Information
The British Olympic Association (BOA; Welsh: Cymdeithas Olympaidd Prydain; IOC Code: GBR) is the National Olympic Committee for the United Kingdom. It represents the four countries of the United Kingdom (England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland), but also represents the athletes of the three Crown Dependencies of Jersey, Guernsey and the Isle of Man and eight of the eleven inhabited British Overseas Territories. The British Virgin Islands, Bermuda and Cayman Islands each have their own national Olympic associations, founded before the modern rules restricting the recognition of national Olympic committees to recognised states.
