The Zimbabwe Olympic Committee (IOC code: ZIM) is the National Olympic Committee representing Zimbabwe. It was created in 1934 as the Rhodesia Olympic Committee and recognised by the IOC in 1980. [1]

Zimbabwe made its debut at the 1980 Summer Olympics held in Moscow, Soviet Union. Previously, it competed as Rhodesia and was banned for a short period in the 1970s. After the country gained its independence, it reformed its Olympic committee. [2]
Until 2003, the Zimbabwe Olympic Committee was also a Commonwealth Games Association, which organised Zimbabwe's representation from the 1982 Commonwealth Games in Brisbane, Australia to the 2002 Commonwealth Games in Manchester, England.
