Organized by the French Olympic Committee and held as part of an \"International Winter Sports Week\", the competitions took place in Chamonix and Haute-Savoie, France, from 25 January to 5 February 1924. Although not initially termed \"Winter Olympics\", the\nInternational Olympic Committee\n(IOC) decided to retrospectively grant the Chamonix competitions the status of the first Winter Olympic Games at the committee's 26th session on May 6, 1926.\n[\n2\n]\n[\n3\n]\nThe tradition of holding the Winter Olympics in the same year as the Summer Olympics would continue until\n1992\n, after which the current practice of holding a Winter Olympics in the second year after each Summer Olympics began.\nAlthough figure skating had been an Olympic event in both\nLondon\nand\nAntwerp\nand ice hockey had been an event in Antwerp, winter sports had always been limited by the season. At the 1921 IOC convention in\nLausanne\n, there was a call for equality for winter sports. After much discussion, it was decided that France, host nation for the\n1924 Summer Olympics\n, would hold an \"international week of winter sport\" in Chamonix.\nWhile not one of the official 16 events (nor one of the 6\nsports\n) during the \"International Winter Sports Week\", the closing ceremony included Pierre de Coubertin presenting gold medals in \"Alpinism\" (\nmountaineering\n) to the members of the\n1922 British Mount Everest expedition\n, represented in Chamonix by\nLt Col Edward Strutt\n, deputy expedition leader.\n[\n4\n]\n[\na\n]\nCharles Jewtraw\nof the\nUnited States\nwon the first\ngold medal\nof the games in the\n500-meter speed skate\n,\n[\n5\n]\nmaking him the first Winter Olympic champion.\n[\n6\n]\nSonja Henie\nof\nNorway\n, at just eleven years old, took part in the ladies' figure skating competition. Although she finished last, she became popular with fans and went on to take gold at the following three Winter Olympics.\n[\n7\n]\nFigure skater\nGillis Grafström\nof\nSweden\nbecame the first athlete to successfully defend his Summer Olympic title at the Winter Olympics (having won a gold medal in\n1920\n).\nThe Canadian ice hockey team (\nToronto Granites\n) finished their qualifying round with three wins against Czechoslovakia (30–0), Sweden (22–0), and Switzerland (33–0), scoring a total of 85 goals and conceding none.\n[\n8\n]\nFinding themselves in the same situation as Gillis Grafström, the Canadian ice hockey team is the last to defend their Summer Olympics title at the Winter Olympics successfully. Canada would dominate ice hockey in early Olympic competitions, winning six of the first seven gold medals awarded.\nTaffy Abel\n(1900–1964) was an Indigenous\nOjibwe\nice hockey player. He was the first Native American in the\nWinter Olympic Games\n(1924 Hockey Silver Medal), the 1924 Flag Bearer for the\nUnited States at the 1924 Winter Olympics\n, the first Native American in the\nNational Hockey League\n(1926), and a\nStanley Cup\nchampion  (1929 and 1934).\nAt the closing ceremony, a prize for\nalpinism\n, a sport not officially included in the Olympic Winter Games, was awarded by\nPierre de Coubertin\nto\nLt Col Edward Strutt\n, the deputy leader of\nBritish expedition\n, on behalf of their attempt to climb Mount Everest in 1922.\n[\n9\n]\nFor the first time in the history of the modern Olympics, the host country (in this case,\nFrance\n) failed to win any gold medals, finishing with three bronze medals. The same outcome occurred at the\nnext Winter Olympics\nin St. Moritz where\nSwitzerland\nwon only a single bronze medal, the lowest ever output by a host nation at an Olympics. Later host nations to finish without gold medals included\nCanada\nat the\n1976 Summer Olympics\nin Montreal,\nYugoslavia\nat the\n1984 Winter Olympics\nin Sarajevo, and\nCanada\nfor a second time at the\n1988 Winter Olympics\nin Calgary.\nIn 1925, the\nInternational Olympic Committee\n(IOC) decided to organize the Olympic Winter Games every four years, independent of the Olympic Games proper, and recognized the International Winter Sports Week as the first Olympic Winter Games in retrospect.\nThe final individual medal of Chamonix 1924 was presented in 1974. The\nski jumping event\nwas unusual because the bronze medalist was not determined for fifty years. Norway's\nThorleif Haug\nwas awarded third place at the event's conclusion, but a clerical error in calculating Haug's score was discovered in 1974 by skiing historian\nJakob Vaage\n, who further determined that\nAnders Haugen\nof the United States, who had finished fourth, had actually scored 0.095 points more than Haug. This was verified by the IOC. On 12 September 1974, Anders Haugen, at the age of 85, came to Norway and was presented the bronze medal by Anna Maria Magnussen, Thorleif Haug's youngest daughter.\n[\n10\n]\nIn 2006, the IOC confirmed that the medals awarded to the 1924\ncurling\nand\nmilitary patrol\nteams were official.\n[\n11\n]\nThe IOC verified that curling was officially part of the program, after the\nGlasgow Herald\nnewspaper filed a claim on behalf of the families of the team.\n[\n12\n]\nMedals were awarded in 16 events contested in 5 sports (9 disciplines). Many sources do not list curling and the military patrol as Olympic events, or list them as demonstration events. However, no such designation was made in 1924. In February 2006, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) ruled that curling and military patrol were part of the Olympic program, and have included the medals awarded in the official count.\nLa Piste de Bobsleigh des Pellerins\n– Bobsleigh\nLe Tremplin Olympique du Mont\n– Ski jumping, Nordic combined (ski jumping)\nStade Olympique de Chamonix\n– Cross-country skiing, Curling, Figure skating, Ice hockey, Military patrol, Nordic combined (cross-country skiing), and Speed skating\nParticipating nations\n[\nedit\n]\nAthletes from 16 nations competed in the first Winter Olympic Games.\nGermany\nwas banned from competing in the games, and instead hosted a series of games called\nDeutsche Kampfspiele\n.\nParticipating\nNational Olympic Committees\n \nAustria\n \n(4)\n \nBelgium\n \n(18)\n \nCanada\n \n(12)\n \nCzechoslovakia\n \n(27)\n \nFinland\n \n(17)\n \nFrance\n \n(43)\n(host)\n \nGreat Britain\n \n(44)\n \nHungary\n \n(4)\n \nItaly\n \n(23)\n \nLatvia\n \n(2)\n \nNorway\n \n(14)\n \nPoland\n \n(7)\n \nSweden\n \n(31)\n \nSwitzerland\n \n(30)\n \nUnited States\n \n(24)\n \nYugoslavia\n \n(4)\n \nEstonia\nspeed skater\nChristfried Burmeister\nwas also in the list of participants but the message about his withdrawal was not sent to the organizers.\n[\n17\n]\nNumber of athletes by National Olympic Committees\n[\nedit\n]\nIOC Letter Code\nCountry\nAthletes\nGBR\n \nGreat Britain\n44\nFRA\n \nFrance\n43\nSWE\n \nSweden\n31\nSUI\n \nSwitzerland\n30\nTCH\n \nCzechoslovakia\n27\nUSA\n \nUnited States\n24\nITA\n \nItaly\n23\nBEL\n \nBelgium\n18\nFIN\n \nFinland\n17\nNOR\n \nNorway\n14\nCAN\n \nCanada\n12\nPOL\n \nPoland\n7\nAUT\n \nAustria\n4\nHUN\n \nHungary\n4\nYUG\n \nYugoslavia\n4\nLAT\n \nLatvia\n2\nTotal\n304\nPierre de Coubertin\n—founder of the\nIOC\n& father of the modern Olympics movement—personally awarded, in addition to the medals awarded in the sports competitions, 21 gold medals to members of the\n1922 British Mount Everest Expedition\nincluding 12 Britons, 7 Indians, 1 Australian and 1 Nepalese.\n[\n18\n]\n[\n19\n]\nOnly the gold medal from 1924 is assigned to the\nWinter Olympics\nby the IOC in its database to the\nMixed team\n,\n[\n20\n]\n[\n21\n]\nwhile the medals from 1932 and 1936 are assigned to the\nSummer Olympics\nfor the respective NOCs.\n[\n22\n]\n[\n23\n]\n  *  \n Host nation (\nFrance\n)\nDate\nSport\nEvent\nNOC\nGold\nSilver\nBronze\n30 January\nCross-country skiing\nMen's 50 kilometre\n \nNorway\nThorleif Haug\nThoralf Strømstad\nJohan Grøttumsbråten\n4 February\nNordic combined\nNormal hill\n \nNorway\nThorleif Haug\nThoralf Strømstad\nJohan Grøttumsbråten\nList of 1924 Winter Olympics medal winners\n1924 Summer Olympics\nOlympic Games held in France\n1900 Summer Olympics\n– Paris\n1924 Summer Olympics\n– Paris\n1924 Winter Olympics\n– Chamonix\n1968 Winter Olympics\n– Grenoble\n1992 Winter Olympics\n– Albertville\n2024 Summer Olympics\n– Paris\n2030 Winter Olympics\n– French Alps\nList of IOC country codes\n^\nThirteen names were included at the 1924 closing ceremony.

Organized by the French Olympic Committee and held as part of an \"International Winter Sports Week\", the competitions took place in Chamonix and Haute-Savoie, France, from 25 January to 5 February 1924. Although not initially termed \"Winter Olympics\", the [International Olympic Committee](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/International_Olympic_Committee \"International Olympic Committee\") (IOC) decided to retrospectively grant the Chamonix competitions the status of the first Winter Olympic Games at the committee's 26th session on May 6, 1926.[\\[2\\]](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-IOC_stamp_of_approval-2)[\\[3\\]](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-CNN2014-3)\n\nThe tradition of holding the Winter Olympics in the same year as the Summer Olympics would continue until [1992](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1992_Winter_Olympics \"1992 Winter Olympics\"), after which the current practice of holding a Winter Olympics in the second year after each Summer Olympics began.\n\nAlthough figure skating had been an Olympic event in both [London](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1908_Summer_Olympics \"1908 Summer Olympics\") and [Antwerp](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1920_Summer_Olympics \"1920 Summer Olympics\") and ice hockey had been an event in Antwerp, winter sports had always been limited by the season. At the 1921 IOC convention in [Lausanne](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Lausanne \"Lausanne\"), there was a call for equality for winter sports. After much discussion, it was decided that France, host nation for the [1924 Summer Olympics](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1924_Summer_Olympics \"1924 Summer Olympics\"), would hold an \"international week of winter sport\" in Chamonix.\n\nWhile not one of the official 16 events (nor one of the 6 [sports](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Olympic_sports \"Olympic sports\")) during the \"International Winter Sports Week\", the closing ceremony included Pierre de Coubertin presenting gold medals in \"Alpinism\" ([mountaineering](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Mountaineering \"Mountaineering\")) to the members of the [1922 British Mount Everest expedition](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1922_British_Mount_Everest_expedition \"1922 British Mount Everest expedition\"), represented in Chamonix by [Lt Col Edward Strutt](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Edward_Lisle_Strutt \"Edward Lisle Strutt\"), deputy expedition leader.[\\[4\\]](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-olympicmedals1922expedition-4)[\\[a\\]](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-5)\n\n## Highlights\n\\[[edit](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/w\/index.php?title=1924_Winter_Olympics&action=edit&section=1 \"Edit section: Highlights\")\\]\n\n### Day 2\n\\[[edit](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/w\/index.php?title=1924_Winter_Olympics&action=edit&section=2 \"Edit section: Day 2\")\\]\n\n[Charles Jewtraw](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Charles_Jewtraw \"Charles Jewtraw\") of the [United States](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/United_States_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics \"United States at the 1924 Winter Olympics\") won the first [gold medal](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Gold_medal \"Gold medal\") of the games in the [500-meter speed skate](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Speed_skating_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics_%E2%80%93_Men%27s_500_metres \"Speed skating at the 1924 Winter Olympics – Men's 500 metres\"),[\\[5\\]](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-6) making him the first Winter Olympic champion.[\\[6\\]](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-IOC_Factsheet-7)\n\n### Day 4\n\\[[edit](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/w\/index.php?title=1924_Winter_Olympics&action=edit&section=3 \"Edit section: Day 4\")\\]\n\n[Sonja Henie](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Sonja_Henie \"Sonja Henie\") of [Norway](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Norway_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics \"Norway at the 1924 Winter Olympics\"), at just eleven years old, took part in the ladies' figure skating competition.

He was the first Native American in the [Winter Olympic Games](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Winter_Olympic_Games \"Winter Olympic Games\") (1924 Hockey Silver Medal), the 1924 Flag Bearer for the [United States at the 1924 Winter Olympics](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/United_States_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics \"United States at the 1924 Winter Olympics\"), the first Native American in the [National Hockey League](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/National_Hockey_League \"National Hockey League\") (1926), and a [Stanley Cup](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Stanley_Cup \"Stanley Cup\") champion (1929 and 1934).\n\nAt the closing ceremony, a prize for [alpinism](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Mountaineering \"Mountaineering\"), a sport not officially included in the Olympic Winter Games, was awarded by [Pierre de Coubertin](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Pierre_de_Coubertin \"Pierre de Coubertin\") to [Lt Col Edward Strutt](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Edward_Lisle_Strutt \"Edward Lisle Strutt\"), the deputy leader of [British expedition](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1922_British_Mount_Everest_expedition \"1922 British Mount Everest expedition\"), on behalf of their attempt to climb Mount Everest in 1922.[\\[9\\]](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-olympic-heroes-10)\n\nFor the first time in the history of the modern Olympics, the host country (in this case, [France](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/France_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics \"France at the 1924 Winter Olympics\")) failed to win any gold medals, finishing with three bronze medals. The same outcome occurred at the [next Winter Olympics](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1928_Winter_Olympics \"1928 Winter Olympics\") in St. Moritz where [Switzerland](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Switzerland_at_the_1928_Winter_Olympics \"Switzerland at the 1928 Winter Olympics\") won only a single bronze medal, the lowest ever output by a host nation at an Olympics. Later host nations to finish without gold medals included [Canada](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Canada_at_the_1976_Winter_Olympics \"Canada at the 1976 Winter Olympics\") at the [1976 Summer Olympics](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1976_Summer_Olympics \"1976 Summer Olympics\") in Montreal, [Yugoslavia](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Yugoslavia_at_the_1984_Winter_Olympics \"Yugoslavia at the 1984 Winter Olympics\") at the [1984 Winter Olympics](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1984_Winter_Olympics \"1984 Winter Olympics\") in Sarajevo, and [Canada](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Canada_at_the_1988_Winter_Olympics \"Canada at the 1988 Winter Olympics\") for a second time at the [1988 Winter Olympics](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1988_Winter_Olympics \"1988 Winter Olympics\") in Calgary.\n\nIn 1925, the [International Olympic Committee](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/International_Olympic_Committee \"International Olympic Committee\") (IOC) decided to organize the Olympic Winter Games every four years, independent of the Olympic Games proper, and recognized the International Winter Sports Week as the first Olympic Winter Games in retrospect.\n\nThe final individual medal of Chamonix 1924 was presented in 1974. The [ski jumping event](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Ski_jumping_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics \"Ski jumping at the 1924 Winter Olympics\") was unusual because the bronze medalist was not determined for fifty years. Norway's [Thorleif Haug](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Thorleif_Haug \"Thorleif Haug\") was awarded third place at the event's conclusion, but a clerical error in calculating Haug's score was discovered in 1974 by skiing historian [Jakob Vaage](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Jakob_Vaage \"Jakob Vaage\"), who further determined that [Anders Haugen](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Anders_Haugen \"Anders Haugen\") of the United States, who had finished fourth, had actually scored 0.095 points more than Haug. This was verified by the IOC. On 12 September 1974, Anders Haugen, at the age of 85, came to Norway and was presented the bronze medal by Anna Maria Magnussen, Thorleif Haug's youngest daughter.[\\[10\\]](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-11)\n\nIn 2006, the IOC confirmed that the medals awarded to the 1924 [curling](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Curling \"Curling\") and [military patrol](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Military_patrol \"Military patrol\") teams were official.[\\[11\\]](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-12) The IOC verified that curling was officially part of the program, after the *[Glasgow Herald](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Glasgow_Herald \"Glasgow Herald\")* newspaper filed a claim on behalf of the families of the team.[\\[12\\]](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-13)\n\n## Events\n\\[[edit](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/w\/index.php?title=1924_Winter_Olympics&action=edit&section=8 \"Edit section: Events\")\\]\n\nMedals were awarded in 16 events contested in 5 sports (9 disciplines). Many sources do not list curling and the military patrol as Olympic events, or list them as demonstration events. However, no such designation was made in 1924. In February 2006, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) ruled that curling and military patrol were part of the Olympic program, and have included the medals awarded in the official count.\n\n- ![](https:\/\/upload.wikimedia.org\/wikipedia\/commons\/thumb\/8\/83\/Bobsleigh_pictogram.svg\/20px-Bobsleigh_pictogram.svg.png) [Bobsleigh](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Bobsleigh \"Bobsleigh\")\n  (1)\n  ([details](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Bobsleigh_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics \"Bobsleigh at the 1924 Winter Olympics\"))\n- ![](https:\/\/upload.wikimedia.org\/wikipedia\/commons\/thumb\/b\/b7\/Curling_pictogram.svg\/20px-Curling_pictogram.svg.png) [Curling](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Curling \"Curling\")\n  (1)\n  ([details](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Curling_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics \"Curling at the 1924 Winter Olympics\"))\n- ![](https:\/\/upload.wikimedia.org\/wikipedia\/commons\/thumb\/e\/eb\/Ice_hockey_pictogram.svg\/20px-Ice_hockey_pictogram.svg.png) [Ice hockey](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Ice_hockey \"Ice hockey\")\n  (1)\n  ([details](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Ice_hockey_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics \"Ice hockey at the 1924 Winter Olympics\"))\n- [Skating](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Ice_Skating \"Ice Skating\")\n  -

Organized by the French Olympic Committee and held as part of an \"International Winter Sports Week\", the competitions took place in Chamonix and Haute-Savoie, France, from 25 January to 5 February 1924. Although not initially termed \"Winter Olympics\", the [International Olympic Committee](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/International_Olympic_Committee \"International Olympic Committee\") (IOC) decided to retrospectively grant the Chamonix competitions the status of the first Winter Olympic Games at the committee's 26th session on May 6, 1926.[\\[2\\]](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-IOC_stamp_of_approval-2)[\\[3\\]](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-CNN2014-3)\n\nThe tradition of holding the Winter Olympics in the same year as the Summer Olympics would continue until [1992](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1992_Winter_Olympics \"1992 Winter Olympics\"), after which the current practice of holding a Winter Olympics in the second year after each Summer Olympics began.\n\nAlthough figure skating had been an Olympic event in both [London](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1908_Summer_Olympics \"1908 Summer Olympics\") and [Antwerp](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1920_Summer_Olympics \"1920 Summer Olympics\") and ice hockey had been an event in Antwerp, winter sports had always been limited by the season. At the 1921 IOC convention in [Lausanne](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Lausanne \"Lausanne\"), there was a call for equality for winter sports. After much discussion, it was decided that France, host nation for the [1924 Summer Olympics](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1924_Summer_Olympics \"1924 Summer Olympics\"), would hold an \"international week of winter sport\" in Chamonix.\n\nWhile not one of the official 16 events (nor one of the 6 [sports](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Olympic_sports \"Olympic sports\")) during the \"International Winter Sports Week\", the closing ceremony included Pierre de Coubertin presenting gold medals in \"Alpinism\" ([mountaineering](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Mountaineering \"Mountaineering\")) to the members of the [1922 British Mount Everest expedition](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1922_British_Mount_Everest_expedition \"1922 British Mount Everest expedition\"), represented in Chamonix by [Lt Col Edward Strutt](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Edward_Lisle_Strutt \"Edward Lisle Strutt\"), deputy expedition leader.[\\[4\\]](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-olympicmedals1922expedition-4)[\\[a\\]](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-5)\n\n[Charles Jewtraw](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Charles_Jewtraw \"Charles Jewtraw\") of the [United States](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/United_States_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics \"United States at the 1924 Winter Olympics\") won the first [gold medal](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Gold_medal \"Gold medal\") of the games in the [500-meter speed skate](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Speed_skating_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics_%E2%80%93_Men%27s_500_metres \"Speed skating at the 1924 Winter Olympics – Men's 500 metres\"),[\\[5\\]](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-6) making him the first Winter Olympic champion.[\\[6\\]](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-IOC_Factsheet-7)\n\n[Sonja Henie](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Sonja_Henie \"Sonja Henie\") of [Norway](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Norway_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics \"Norway at the 1924 Winter Olympics\"), at just eleven years old, took part in the ladies' figure skating competition. Although she finished last, she became popular with fans and went on to take gold at the following three Winter Olympics.[\\[7\\]](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-8)\n\nFigure skater [Gillis Grafström](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Gillis_Grafstr%C3%B6m \"Gillis Grafström\") of [Sweden](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Sweden_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics \"Sweden at the 1924 Winter Olympics\") became the first athlete to successfully defend his Summer Olympic title at the Winter Olympics (having won a gold medal in [1920](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1920_Summer_Olympics \"1920 Summer Olympics\")).\n\nThe Canadian ice hockey team ([Toronto Granites](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Toronto_Granites \"Toronto Granites\")) finished their qualifying round with three wins against Czechoslovakia (30–0), Sweden (22–0), and Switzerland (33–0), scoring a total of 85 goals and conceding none.[\\[8\\]](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-IOC_Canadian_Ice_Hockey-9)\n\nFinding themselves in the same situation as Gillis Grafström, the Canadian ice hockey team is the last to defend their Summer Olympics title at the Winter Olympics successfully. Canada would dominate ice hockey in early Olympic competitions, winning six of the first seven gold medals awarded.\n\n[Taffy Abel](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Taffy_Abel \"Taffy Abel\") (1900–1964) was an Indigenous [Ojibwe](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Ojibwe \"Ojibwe\") ice hockey player. He was the first Native American in the [Winter Olympic Games](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Winter_Olympic_Games \"Winter Olympic Games\") (1924 Hockey Silver Medal), the 1924 Flag Bearer for the [United States at the 1924 Winter Olympics](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/United_States_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics \"United States at the 1924 Winter Olympics\"), the first Native American in the [National Hockey League](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/National_Hockey_League \"National Hockey League\") (1926), and a [Stanley Cup](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Stanley_Cup \"Stanley Cup\") champion (1929 and 1934).\n\nAt the closing ceremony, a prize for [alpinism](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Mountaineering \"Mountaineering\"), a sport not officially included in the Olympic Winter Games, was awarded by [Pierre de Coubertin](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Pierre_de_Coubertin \"Pierre de Coubertin\") to [Lt Col Edward Strutt](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Edward_Lisle_Strutt \"Edward Lisle Strutt\"), the deputy leader of [British expedition](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1922_British_Mount_Everest_expedition \"1922 British Mount Everest expedition\"), on behalf of their attempt to climb Mount Everest in 1922.[\\[9\\]](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-olympic-heroes-10)\n\nFor the first time in the history of the modern Olympics, the host country (in this case, [France](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/France_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics \"France at the 1924 Winter Olympics\")) failed to win any gold medals, finishing with three bronze medals. The same outcome occurred at the [next Winter Olympics](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1928_Winter_Olympics \"1928 Winter Olympics\") in St. Moritz where [Switzerland](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Switzerland_at_the_1928_Winter_Olympics \"Switzerland at the 1928 Winter Olympics\") won only a single bronze medal, the lowest ever output by a host nation at an Olympics. Later host nations to finish without gold medals included [Canada](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Canada_at_the_1976_Winter_Olympics \"Canada at the 1976 Winter Olympics\") at the [1976 Summer Olympics](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1976_Summer_Olympics \"1976 Summer Olympics\") in Montreal, [Yugoslavia](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Yugoslavia_at_the_1984_Winter_Olympics \"Yugoslavia at the 1984 Winter Olympics\") at the [1984 Winter Olympics](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1984_Winter_Olympics \"1984 Winter Olympics\") in Sarajevo, and [Canada](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Canada_at_the_1988_Winter_Olympics \"Canada at the 1988 Winter Olympics\") for a second time at the [1988 Winter Olympics](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1988_Winter_Olympics \"1988 Winter Olympics\") in Calgary.\n\nIn 1925, the [International Olympic Committee](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/International_Olympic_Committee \"International Olympic Committee\") (IOC) decided to organize the Olympic Winter Games every four years, independent of the Olympic Games proper, and recognized the International Winter Sports Week as the first Olympic Winter Games in retrospect.\n\nThe final individual medal of Chamonix 1924 was presented in 1974. The [ski jumping event](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Ski_jumping_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics \"Ski jumping at the 1924 Winter Olympics\") was unusual because the bronze medalist was not determined for fifty years. Norway's [Thorleif Haug](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Thorleif_Haug \"Thorleif Haug\") was awarded third place at the event's conclusion, but a clerical error in calculating Haug's score was discovered in 1974 by skiing historian [Jakob Vaage](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Jakob_Vaage \"Jakob Vaage\"), who further determined that [Anders Haugen](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Anders_Haugen \"Anders Haugen\") of the United States, who had finished fourth, had actually scored 0.095 points more than Haug. This was verified by the IOC. On 12 September 1974, Anders Haugen, at the age of 85, came to Norway and was presented the bronze medal by Anna Maria Magnussen, Thorleif Haug's youngest daughter.[\\[10\\]](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-11)\n\nIn 2006, the IOC confirmed that the medals awarded to the 1924 [curling](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Curling \"Curling\") and [military patrol](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Military_patrol \"Military patrol\") teams were official.[\\[11\\]](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-12) The IOC verified that curling was officially part of the program, after the *[Glasgow Herald](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Glasgow_Herald \"Glasgow Herald\")* newspaper filed a claim on behalf of the families of the team.[\\[12\\]](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-13)\n\nMedals were awarded in 16 events contested in 5 sports (9 disciplines). Many sources do not list curling and the military patrol as Olympic events, or list them as demonstration events. However, no such designation was made in 1924. In February 2006, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) ruled that curling and military patrol were part of the Olympic program, and have included the medals awarded in the official count.\n\n- [La Piste de Bobsleigh des Pellerins](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/La_Piste_de_Bobsleigh_des_Pellerins \"La Piste de Bobsleigh des Pellerins\") – Bobsleigh\n- [Le Tremplin Olympique du Mont](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Le_Tremplin_Olympique_du_Mont \"Le Tremplin Olympique du Mont\") – Ski jumping, Nordic combined (ski jumping)\n- [Stade Olympique de Chamonix](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Stade_Olympique_de_Chamonix \"Stade Olympique de Chamonix\") – Cross-country skiing, Curling, Figure skating, Ice hockey, Military patrol, Nordic combined (cross-country skiing), and Speed skating\n\n## Participating nations\n\\[[edit](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/w\/index.php?title=1924_Winter_Olympics&action=edit&section=10 \"Edit section: Participating nations\")\\]\n\nAthletes from 16 nations competed in the first Winter Olympic Games.

Boilerpipe Text	From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia I Olympic Winter Games Poster for the 1924 Winter Olympic Games Location Chamonix , France Nations 16 Athletes 304 [ 1 ] Events 16 in 5 sports (9 disciplines) Opening 25 January 1924 Closing 5 February 1924 Opened by Gaston Vidal Stadium Stade Olympique de Chamonix Winter St Moritz 1928 → Summer ← Antwerp 1920 Paris 1924 → The 1924 Winter Olympics , officially known as the I Olympic Winter Games ( French : I ers Jeux olympiques d'hiver ) and commonly known as Chamonix 1924 ( Arpitan : Chamôni 1924 ), were a winter multi-sport event which was held in 1924 in Chamonix , France. Organized by the French Olympic Committee and held as part of an "International Winter Sports Week", the competitions took place in Chamonix and Haute-Savoie, France, from 25 January to 5 February 1924. Although not initially termed "Winter Olympics", the International Olympic Committee (IOC) decided to retrospectively grant the Chamonix competitions the status of the first Winter Olympic Games at the committee's 26th session on May 6, 1926. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] The tradition of holding the Winter Olympics in the same year as the Summer Olympics would continue until 1992 , after which the current practice of holding a Winter Olympics in the second year after each Summer Olympics began. Although figure skating had been an Olympic event in both London and Antwerp and ice hockey had been an event in Antwerp, winter sports had always been limited by the season. At the 1921 IOC convention in Lausanne , there was a call for equality for winter sports. After much discussion, it was decided that France, host nation for the 1924 Summer Olympics , would hold an "international week of winter sport" in Chamonix. While not one of the official 16 events (nor one of the 6 sports ) during the "International Winter Sports Week", the closing ceremony included Pierre de Coubertin presenting gold medals in "Alpinism" ( mountaineering ) to the members of the 1922 British Mount Everest expedition , represented in Chamonix by Lt Col Edward Strutt , deputy expedition leader. [ 4 ] [ a ] Charles Jewtraw of the United States won the first gold medal of the games in the 500-meter speed skate , [ 5 ] making him the first Winter Olympic champion. [ 6 ] Sonja Henie of Norway , at just eleven years old, took part in the ladies' figure skating competition. Although she finished last, she became popular with fans and went on to take gold at the following three Winter Olympics. [ 7 ] Figure skater Gillis Grafström of Sweden became the first athlete to successfully defend his Summer Olympic title at the Winter Olympics (having won a gold medal in 1920 ). The Canadian ice hockey team ( Toronto Granites ) finished their qualifying round with three wins against Czechoslovakia (30–0), Sweden (22–0), and Switzerland (33–0), scoring a total of 85 goals and conceding none. [ 8 ] Finding themselves in the same situation as Gillis Grafström, the Canadian ice hockey team is the last to defend their Summer Olympics title at the Winter Olympics successfully. Canada would dominate ice hockey in early Olympic competitions, winning six of the first seven gold medals awarded. Taffy Abel (1900–1964) was an Indigenous Ojibwe ice hockey player. He was the first Native American in the Winter Olympic Games (1924 Hockey Silver Medal), the 1924 Flag Bearer for the United States at the 1924 Winter Olympics , the first Native American in the National Hockey League (1926), and a Stanley Cup champion (1929 and 1934). At the closing ceremony, a prize for alpinism , a sport not officially included in the Olympic Winter Games, was awarded by Pierre de Coubertin to Lt Col Edward Strutt , the deputy leader of British expedition , on behalf of their attempt to climb Mount Everest in 1922. [ 9 ] For the first time in the history of the modern Olympics, the host country (in this case, France ) failed to win any gold medals, finishing with three bronze medals. The same outcome occurred at the next Winter Olympics in St. Moritz where Switzerland won only a single bronze medal, the lowest ever output by a host nation at an Olympics. Later host nations to finish without gold medals included Canada at the 1976 Summer Olympics in Montreal, Yugoslavia at the 1984 Winter Olympics in Sarajevo, and Canada for a second time at the 1988 Winter Olympics in Calgary. In 1925, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) decided to organize the Olympic Winter Games every four years, independent of the Olympic Games proper, and recognized the International Winter Sports Week as the first Olympic Winter Games in retrospect. The final individual medal of Chamonix 1924 was presented in 1974. The ski jumping event was unusual because the bronze medalist was not determined for fifty years. Norway's Thorleif Haug was awarded third place at the event's conclusion, but a clerical error in calculating Haug's score was discovered in 1974 by skiing historian Jakob Vaage , who further determined that Anders Haugen of the United States, who had finished fourth, had actually scored 0.095 points more than Haug. This was verified by the IOC. On 12 September 1974, Anders Haugen, at the age of 85, came to Norway and was presented the bronze medal by Anna Maria Magnussen, Thorleif Haug's youngest daughter. [ 10 ] In 2006, the IOC confirmed that the medals awarded to the 1924 curling and military patrol teams were official. [ 11 ] The IOC verified that curling was officially part of the program, after the Glasgow Herald newspaper filed a claim on behalf of the families of the team. [ 12 ] Medals were awarded in 16 events contested in 5 sports (9 disciplines). Many sources do not list curling and the military patrol as Olympic events, or list them as demonstration events. However, no such designation was made in 1924. In February 2006, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) ruled that curling and military patrol were part of the Olympic program, and have included the medals awarded in the official count. La Piste de Bobsleigh des Pellerins – Bobsleigh Le Tremplin Olympique du Mont – Ski jumping, Nordic combined (ski jumping) Stade Olympique de Chamonix – Cross-country skiing, Curling, Figure skating, Ice hockey, Military patrol, Nordic combined (cross-country skiing), and Speed skating Participating nations [ edit ] Athletes from 16 nations competed in the first Winter Olympic Games. Germany was banned from competing in the games, and instead hosted a series of games called Deutsche Kampfspiele . Participating National Olympic Committees Austria (4) Belgium (18) Canada (12) Czechoslovakia (27) Finland (17) France (43) (host) Great Britain (44) Hungary (4) Italy (23) Latvia (2) Norway (14) Poland (7) Sweden (31) Switzerland (30) United States (24) Yugoslavia (4) Estonia speed skater Christfried Burmeister was also in the list of participants but the message about his withdrawal was not sent to the organizers.

[ 18 ] [ 19 ] Only the gold medal from 1924 is assigned to the Winter Olympics by the IOC in its database to the Mixed team , [ 20 ] [ 21 ] while the medals from 1932 and 1936 are assigned to the Summer Olympics for the respective NOCs.

Organized by the French Olympic Committee and held as part of an "International Winter Sports Week", the competitions took place in Chamonix and Haute-Savoie, France, from 25 January to 5 February 1924. Although not initially termed "Winter Olympics", the [International Olympic Committee](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Olympic_Committee "International Olympic Committee") (IOC) decided to retrospectively grant the Chamonix competitions the status of the first Winter Olympic Games at the committee's 26th session on May 6, 1926.[\[2\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-IOC_stamp_of_approval-2)[\[3\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-CNN2014-3) The tradition of holding the Winter Olympics in the same year as the Summer Olympics would continue until [1992](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1992_Winter_Olympics "1992 Winter Olympics"), after which the current practice of holding a Winter Olympics in the second year after each Summer Olympics began. Although figure skating had been an Olympic event in both [London](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1908_Summer_Olympics "1908 Summer Olympics") and [Antwerp](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1920_Summer_Olympics "1920 Summer Olympics") and ice hockey had been an event in Antwerp, winter sports had always been limited by the season. At the 1921 IOC convention in [Lausanne](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lausanne "Lausanne"), there was a call for equality for winter sports. After much discussion, it was decided that France, host nation for the [1924 Summer Olympics](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1924_Summer_Olympics "1924 Summer Olympics"), would hold an "international week of winter sport" in Chamonix. While not one of the official 16 events (nor one of the 6 [sports](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olympic_sports "Olympic sports")) during the "International Winter Sports Week", the closing ceremony included Pierre de Coubertin presenting gold medals in "Alpinism" ([mountaineering](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mountaineering "Mountaineering")) to the members of the [1922 British Mount Everest expedition](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1922_British_Mount_Everest_expedition "1922 British Mount Everest expedition"), represented in Chamonix by [Lt Col Edward Strutt](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Lisle_Strutt "Edward Lisle Strutt"), deputy expedition leader.[\[4\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-olympicmedals1922expedition-4)[\[a\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-5) ## Highlights \[[edit](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=1924_Winter_Olympics&action=edit&section=1 "Edit section: Highlights")\] ### Day 2 \[[edit](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=1924_Winter_Olympics&action=edit&section=2 "Edit section: Day 2")\] [Charles Jewtraw](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Jewtraw "Charles Jewtraw") of the [United States](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics "United States at the 1924 Winter Olympics") won the first [gold medal](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gold_medal "Gold medal") of the games in the [500-meter speed skate](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_skating_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics_%E2%80%93_Men%27s_500_metres "Speed skating at the 1924 Winter Olympics – Men's 500 metres"),[\[5\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-6) making him the first Winter Olympic champion.[\[6\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-IOC_Factsheet-7) ### Day 4 \[[edit](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=1924_Winter_Olympics&action=edit&section=3 "Edit section: Day 4")\] [Sonja Henie](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonja_Henie "Sonja Henie") of [Norway](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norway_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics "Norway at the 1924 Winter Olympics"), at just eleven years old, took part in the ladies' figure skating competition.

The same outcome occurred at the [next Winter Olympics](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1928_Winter_Olympics "1928 Winter Olympics") in St. Moritz where [Switzerland](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switzerland_at_the_1928_Winter_Olympics "Switzerland at the 1928 Winter Olympics") won only a single bronze medal, the lowest ever output by a host nation at an Olympics. Later host nations to finish without gold medals included [Canada](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canada_at_the_1976_Winter_Olympics "Canada at the 1976 Winter Olympics") at the [1976 Summer Olympics](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1976_Summer_Olympics "1976 Summer Olympics") in Montreal, [Yugoslavia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yugoslavia_at_the_1984_Winter_Olympics "Yugoslavia at the 1984 Winter Olympics") at the [1984 Winter Olympics](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1984_Winter_Olympics "1984 Winter Olympics") in Sarajevo, and [Canada](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canada_at_the_1988_Winter_Olympics "Canada at the 1988 Winter Olympics") for a second time at the [1988 Winter Olympics](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1988_Winter_Olympics "1988 Winter Olympics") in Calgary. In 1925, the [International Olympic Committee](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Olympic_Committee "International Olympic Committee") (IOC) decided to organize the Olympic Winter Games every four years, independent of the Olympic Games proper, and recognized the International Winter Sports Week as the first Olympic Winter Games in retrospect. The final individual medal of Chamonix 1924 was presented in 1974. The [ski jumping event](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ski_jumping_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics "Ski jumping at the 1924 Winter Olympics") was unusual because the bronze medalist was not determined for fifty years. Norway's [Thorleif Haug](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thorleif_Haug "Thorleif Haug") was awarded third place at the event's conclusion, but a clerical error in calculating Haug's score was discovered in 1974 by skiing historian [Jakob Vaage](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jakob_Vaage "Jakob Vaage"), who further determined that [Anders Haugen](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anders_Haugen "Anders Haugen") of the United States, who had finished fourth, had actually scored 0.095 points more than Haug. This was verified by the IOC. On 12 September 1974, Anders Haugen, at the age of 85, came to Norway and was presented the bronze medal by Anna Maria Magnussen, Thorleif Haug's youngest daughter.[\[10\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-11) In 2006, the IOC confirmed that the medals awarded to the 1924 [curling](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curling "Curling") and [military patrol](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_patrol "Military patrol") teams were official.[\[11\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-12) The IOC verified that curling was officially part of the program, after the [Glasgow Herald](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glasgow_Herald "Glasgow Herald") newspaper filed a claim on behalf of the families of the team.[\[12\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-13) ## Events \[[edit](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=1924_Winter_Olympics&action=edit&section=8 "Edit section: Events")\] Medals were awarded in 16 events contested in 5 sports (9 disciplines). Many sources do not list curling and the military patrol as Olympic events, or list them as demonstration events. However, no such designation was made in 1924. In February 2006, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) ruled that curling and military patrol were part of the Olympic program, and have included the medals awarded in the official count. - ![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/83/Bobsleigh_pictogram.svg/20px-Bobsleigh_pictogram.svg.png) [Bobsleigh](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bobsleigh "Bobsleigh") (1) ([details](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bobsleigh_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics "Bobsleigh at the 1924 Winter Olympics")) - ![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b7/Curling_pictogram.svg/20px-Curling_pictogram.svg.png) [Curling](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curling "Curling") (1) ([details](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curling_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics "Curling at the 1924 Winter Olympics")) - ![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/eb/Ice_hockey_pictogram.svg/20px-Ice_hockey_pictogram.svg.png) [Ice hockey](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice_hockey "Ice hockey") (1) ([details](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice_hockey_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics "Ice hockey at the 1924 Winter Olympics")) - [Skating](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice_Skating "Ice Skating") - ![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b1/Figure_skating_pictogram.svg/20px-Figure_skating_pictogram.svg.png) [Figure skating](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Figure_skating "Figure skating") (3) ([details](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Figure_skating_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics "Figure skating at the 1924 Winter Olympics")) - ![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/16/Speed_skating_pictogram.svg/20px-Speed_skating_pictogram.svg.png) [Speed skating](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_skating "Speed skating") (5) ([details](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_skating_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics "Speed skating at the 1924 Winter Olympics")) - ![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/6c/Cross_country_skiing_pictogram.svg/20px-Cross_country_skiing_pictogram.svg.png) [Nordic skiing](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nordic_skiing "Nordic skiing") ([details](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nordic_skiing_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics "Nordic skiing at the 1924 Winter Olympics")) - ![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e0/Military_patrol_pictogram.svg/20px-Military_patrol_pictogram.svg.png) [Military patrol](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_patrol "Military patrol") (1) ([details](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_patrol_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics "Military patrol at the 1924 Winter Olympics")) [\[b\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-IOCMilitaryPatrol-18) - ![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/6c/Cross_country_skiing_pictogram.svg/20px-Cross_country_skiing_pictogram.svg.png) [Cross-country skiing](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-country_skiing_\(sport\) "Cross-country skiing (sport)") (2) ([details](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-country_skiing_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics "Cross-country skiing at the 1924 Winter Olympics")) - ![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4b/Nordic_combined_pictogram.svg/20px-Nordic_combined_pictogram.svg.png) [Nordic combined](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nordic_combined "Nordic combined") (1) ([details](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nordic_combined_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics "Nordic combined at the 1924 Winter Olympics")) - ![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3d/Ski_jumping_pictogram.svg/20px-Ski_jumping_pictogram.svg.png) [Ski jumping](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ski_jumping "Ski jumping") (1) ([details](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ski_jumping_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics "Ski jumping at the 1924 Winter Olympics")) ## Venues \[[edit](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=1924_Winter_Olympics&action=edit&section=9 "Edit section: Venues")\] Main article: [Venues of the 1924 Winter Olympics](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venues_of_the_1924_Winter_Olympics "Venues of the 1924 Winter Olympics") - [La Piste de Bobsleigh des Pellerins](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Piste_de_Bobsleigh_des_Pellerins "La Piste de Bobsleigh des Pellerins") – Bobsleigh - [Le Tremplin Olympique du Mont](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Le_Tremplin_Olympique_du_Mont "Le Tremplin Olympique du Mont") – Ski jumping, Nordic combined (ski jumping) - [Stade Olympique de Chamonix](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stade_Olympique_de_Chamonix "Stade Olympique de Chamonix") – Cross-country skiing, Curling, Figure skating, Ice hockey, Military patrol, Nordic combined (cross-country skiing), and Speed skating ## Participating nations \[[edit](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=1924_Winter_Olympics&action=edit&section=10 "Edit section: Participating nations")\] Athletes from 16 nations competed in the first Winter Olympic Games.

Organized by the French Olympic Committee and held as part of an "International Winter Sports Week", the competitions took place in Chamonix and Haute-Savoie, France, from 25 January to 5 February 1924. Although not initially termed "Winter Olympics", the [International Olympic Committee](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Olympic_Committee "International Olympic Committee") (IOC) decided to retrospectively grant the Chamonix competitions the status of the first Winter Olympic Games at the committee's 26th session on May 6, 1926.[\[2\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-IOC_stamp_of_approval-2)[\[3\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-CNN2014-3) The tradition of holding the Winter Olympics in the same year as the Summer Olympics would continue until [1992](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1992_Winter_Olympics "1992 Winter Olympics"), after which the current practice of holding a Winter Olympics in the second year after each Summer Olympics began. Although figure skating had been an Olympic event in both [London](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1908_Summer_Olympics "1908 Summer Olympics") and [Antwerp](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1920_Summer_Olympics "1920 Summer Olympics") and ice hockey had been an event in Antwerp, winter sports had always been limited by the season. At the 1921 IOC convention in [Lausanne](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lausanne "Lausanne"), there was a call for equality for winter sports. After much discussion, it was decided that France, host nation for the [1924 Summer Olympics](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1924_Summer_Olympics "1924 Summer Olympics"), would hold an "international week of winter sport" in Chamonix. While not one of the official 16 events (nor one of the 6 [sports](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olympic_sports "Olympic sports")) during the "International Winter Sports Week", the closing ceremony included Pierre de Coubertin presenting gold medals in "Alpinism" ([mountaineering](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mountaineering "Mountaineering")) to the members of the [1922 British Mount Everest expedition](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1922_British_Mount_Everest_expedition "1922 British Mount Everest expedition"), represented in Chamonix by [Lt Col Edward Strutt](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Lisle_Strutt "Edward Lisle Strutt"), deputy expedition leader.[\[4\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-olympicmedals1922expedition-4)[\[a\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-5) [Charles Jewtraw](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Jewtraw "Charles Jewtraw") of the [United States](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics "United States at the 1924 Winter Olympics") won the first [gold medal](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gold_medal "Gold medal") of the games in the [500-meter speed skate](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_skating_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics_%E2%80%93_Men%27s_500_metres "Speed skating at the 1924 Winter Olympics – Men's 500 metres"),[\[5\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-6) making him the first Winter Olympic champion.[\[6\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-IOC_Factsheet-7) [Sonja Henie](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonja_Henie "Sonja Henie") of [Norway](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norway_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics "Norway at the 1924 Winter Olympics"), at just eleven years old, took part in the ladies' figure skating competition. Although she finished last, she became popular with fans and went on to take gold at the following three Winter Olympics.[\[7\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-8) Figure skater [Gillis Grafström](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gillis_Grafstr%C3%B6m "Gillis Grafström") of [Sweden](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sweden_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics "Sweden at the 1924 Winter Olympics") became the first athlete to successfully defend his Summer Olympic title at the Winter Olympics (having won a gold medal in [1920](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1920_Summer_Olympics "1920 Summer Olympics")). The Canadian ice hockey team ([Toronto Granites](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toronto_Granites "Toronto Granites")) finished their qualifying round with three wins against Czechoslovakia (30–0), Sweden (22–0), and Switzerland (33–0), scoring a total of 85 goals and conceding none.[\[8\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-IOC_Canadian_Ice_Hockey-9) Finding themselves in the same situation as Gillis Grafström, the Canadian ice hockey team is the last to defend their Summer Olympics title at the Winter Olympics successfully. Canada would dominate ice hockey in early Olympic competitions, winning six of the first seven gold medals awarded. [Taffy Abel](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taffy_Abel "Taffy Abel") (1900–1964) was an Indigenous [Ojibwe](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ojibwe "Ojibwe") ice hockey player. He was the first Native American in the [Winter Olympic Games](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winter_Olympic_Games "Winter Olympic Games") (1924 Hockey Silver Medal), the 1924 Flag Bearer for the [United States at the 1924 Winter Olympics](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics "United States at the 1924 Winter Olympics"), the first Native American in the [National Hockey League](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Hockey_League "National Hockey League") (1926), and a [Stanley Cup](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stanley_Cup "Stanley Cup") champion (1929 and 1934). At the closing ceremony, a prize for [alpinism](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mountaineering "Mountaineering"), a sport not officially included in the Olympic Winter Games, was awarded by [Pierre de Coubertin](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pierre_de_Coubertin "Pierre de Coubertin") to [Lt Col Edward Strutt](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Lisle_Strutt "Edward Lisle Strutt"), the deputy leader of [British expedition](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1922_British_Mount_Everest_expedition "1922 British Mount Everest expedition"), on behalf of their attempt to climb Mount Everest in 1922.[\[9\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-olympic-heroes-10) For the first time in the history of the modern Olympics, the host country (in this case, [France](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/France_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics "France at the 1924 Winter Olympics")) failed to win any gold medals, finishing with three bronze medals. The same outcome occurred at the [next Winter Olympics](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1928_Winter_Olympics "1928 Winter Olympics") in St. Moritz where [Switzerland](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switzerland_at_the_1928_Winter_Olympics "Switzerland at the 1928 Winter Olympics") won only a single bronze medal, the lowest ever output by a host nation at an Olympics. Later host nations to finish without gold medals included [Canada](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canada_at_the_1976_Winter_Olympics "Canada at the 1976 Winter Olympics") at the [1976 Summer Olympics](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1976_Summer_Olympics "1976 Summer Olympics") in Montreal, [Yugoslavia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yugoslavia_at_the_1984_Winter_Olympics "Yugoslavia at the 1984 Winter Olympics") at the [1984 Winter Olympics](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1984_Winter_Olympics "1984 Winter Olympics") in Sarajevo, and [Canada](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canada_at_the_1988_Winter_Olympics "Canada at the 1988 Winter Olympics") for a second time at the [1988 Winter Olympics](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1988_Winter_Olympics "1988 Winter Olympics") in Calgary. In 1925, the [International Olympic Committee](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Olympic_Committee "International Olympic Committee") (IOC) decided to organize the Olympic Winter Games every four years, independent of the Olympic Games proper, and recognized the International Winter Sports Week as the first Olympic Winter Games in retrospect. The final individual medal of Chamonix 1924 was presented in 1974. The [ski jumping event](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ski_jumping_at_the_1924_Winter_Olympics "Ski jumping at the 1924 Winter Olympics") was unusual because the bronze medalist was not determined for fifty years. Norway's [Thorleif Haug](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thorleif_Haug "Thorleif Haug") was awarded third place at the event's conclusion, but a clerical error in calculating Haug's score was discovered in 1974 by skiing historian [Jakob Vaage](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jakob_Vaage "Jakob Vaage"), who further determined that [Anders Haugen](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anders_Haugen "Anders Haugen") of the United States, who had finished fourth, had actually scored 0.095 points more than Haug. This was verified by the IOC. On 12 September 1974, Anders Haugen, at the age of 85, came to Norway and was presented the bronze medal by Anna Maria Magnussen, Thorleif Haug's youngest daughter.[\[10\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-11) In 2006, the IOC confirmed that the medals awarded to the 1924 [curling](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curling "Curling") and [military patrol](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_patrol "Military patrol") teams were official.[\[11\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-12) The IOC verified that curling was officially part of the program, after the [Glasgow Herald](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glasgow_Herald "Glasgow Herald") newspaper filed a claim on behalf of the families of the team.[\[12\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1924_Winter_Olympics#cite_note-13) Medals were awarded in 16 events contested in 5 sports (9 disciplines). Many sources do not list curling and the military patrol as Olympic events, or list them as demonstration events. However, no such designation was made in 1924. In February 2006, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) ruled that curling and military patrol were part of the Olympic program, and have included the medals awarded in the official count. - [La Piste de Bobsleigh des Pellerins](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Piste_de_Bobsleigh_des_Pellerins "La Piste de Bobsleigh des Pellerins") – Bobsleigh - [Le Tremplin Olympique du Mont](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Le_Tremplin_Olympique_du_Mont "Le Tremplin Olympique du Mont") – Ski jumping, Nordic combined (ski jumping) - [Stade Olympique de Chamonix](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stade_Olympique_de_Chamonix "Stade Olympique de Chamonix") – Cross-country skiing, Curling, Figure skating, Ice hockey, Military patrol, Nordic combined (cross-country skiing), and Speed skating ## Participating nations \[[edit](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=1924_Winter_Olympics&action=edit&section=10 "Edit section: Participating nations")\] Athletes from 16 nations competed in the first Winter Olympic Games.
