     Rhodesia (1960)

    Malawi has competed in twelve Summer Olympic Games. They have never competed in the Winter Olympic Games.

    Malawi didn't compete in the 1976 Summer Olympics because no athletes had qualified.[1] Malawi boycotted the 1980 Summer Olympics and returned during the 1984 Summer Olympics.

    Malawi has never won an Olympic medal.[2]
