See main article: Athletics at the 2019 Pan American Games and Athletics at the 2019 Pan American Games – Qualification. Dominica qualified two track and field athletes (one per gender).[6] [7] Dillon Simon, did not register a throw in his event, and thus was un-ranked during the shot put competition.[8] On the other hand, triple jumper Thea LaFond finished in eighth place with a best jump of 13.70 metres, therefore registering the country's top result at the games.[9] [10]
