About Olympic Medal


An Olympic medal is awarded to successful competitors at one of the Olympic Games. There are three classes of medal: gold, awarded to the winner; silver, awarded to the 1st runner-up; and bronze, awarded to the second runner-up. The granting of awards is laid out in detail in the Olympic protocols.

How a proud mum's Facebook post got her kids into the Olympics

Feb 16,2020 5:03 am

Cape Verde has never won an Olympic Medal , and despite the country sending only four swimmers to the 2020 Olympics, siblings Latroya, Troy and Jayla Pina have all been chosen.

They have never been to the archipelago nation off the north-west of Africa, but their mother was born there.

The Pinas hope to follow in the footsteps of Simone Manuel, who in 2016, became The First black female swimmer to win an Olympic Gold medal.
