Английская Википедия:British Virgin Islands at the 2015 Pan American Games
Шаблон:Infobox country at games The British Virgin Islands competed at the 2015 Pan American Games in Toronto, Ontario, Canada from July 10 to 26, 2015.[1] The Chef de mission of the team was Xavier Dag Samuels.[2]
A final squad of six athletes (two men and four women) in three sports was announced on June 18, 2015 by the British Virgin Islands Olympic Committee.[3] This marked the doubling of the number of athletes the nation sent to the last edition of the games in 2011.[4] Squash athlete Joseph Chapman was the flagbearer for the team during the opening ceremony.[5]
The British Virgin Islands did not medal at the games, continuing its drought as one of two nations (along with Aruba) to never win a Pan American Games medal.[6]
