Portugal participated at the 2015 European Games in Baku, Azerbaijan, from 12 to 28 June 2015, with a delegation of 100 athletes that competed in 14 sports.[1]
On 10 April 2015, the Olympic Committee of Portugal (COP) announced that the country had secured 99 athlete quota places in 13 sports, with the possibility of increasing this number by the deadline for inscription of athletes (30 April 2015).[2] On 12 May 2015, COP announced a list of 101 athletes competing in 14 sports, following a reallocation of badminton quota places.[3] On 4 June 2015, a final list of 100 athletes was announced, with the exclusion of female wrestler Ana Pereira due to failure in complying with the national federation selection criteria.[4] In addition, two injury-related changes were made: female gymnast Zoi Lima and male table tennis player João Monteiro were substituted by Mariana Pitrez and João Geraldo.[4] On the opening day of the Games, clinical issues forced four last-minute athlete changes: female swimmer Tamila Holub (appendicitis) was replaced by Madalena Azevedo, while the acrobatic gymnastics female trio was replaced due to injury of one of its members (Raquel Martins) by Jéssica Correia, Joana Patrocínio and Susana Pinto.[5]
The delegation will include a staff of 59 people, among which 45 officials, and will be headed by former Olympic canoer José Garcia,[3] who will also lead the Olympic mission to the 2016 Summer Olympics.[6] Four-time Olympic shooter João Costa was chosen to be the flagbearer at the opening ceremony,[7] while multiple world and European medal-winning judoka Telma Monteiro will carry the flag at the closing ceremony.[8]
