The Netherlands competed at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris from 26 July to 11 August 2024. Dutch athletes have appeared in every edition of the Summer Olympic Games, with the exception of the sparsely attended 1904 Summer Olympics in St. Louis and 1956 Summer Olympics in Melbourne (except the equestrian events in Stockholm), which the Netherlands boycotted because of the Soviet invasion of Hungary.

The Netherlands left Paris with 34 medals (15 gold, 7 silver, and 12 bronze), this was the country's highest number of gold medals in a single Olympics, beating the 2000 Summer Olympics record of 12.

Based on the IGF World Rankings, four golfers from the Netherlands were qualified. However, the Netherlands Olympic Committee (NOC*NSF) has additional requirements that were only met by Anne van Dam, hence the remaining positions were forfeited. Dutch golfer Joost Luiten was one of the athletes that did not meet NOC*NSF requirements and as a result was excluded from competing. Luiten successfully appealed this decision in Dutch court, but did not take the case to the CAS because it was too late to enter the tournament. The other golfers that qualified but were not allowed into the competition by NOC*NSF were Darius van Driel and Dewi Weber.

Selection of convicted child rapist

The Dutch Olympic Committee, NOC*NSF, selected Steven van de Velde to represent them in beach volleyball. Van de Velde pleaded guilty in 2016 to three counts of raping a 12-year-old child in the United Kingdom. The British judge said that he should not be able to continue his Olympic ambitions.^[34]^[35]^[36] He had initially fled to the Netherlands after the rapes, which took place in 2014, before being extradited back to the UK in 2016.^[37]

When asked about the decision to select Van de Velde, Michel Everaert, the head of Nederlandse Volleybalbond (NeVoBo; Dutch Volleyball Federation), said that "[Van de Velde] was convicted at the time according to English law and he has served his sentence. [...He] has now been fully reintegrated into the Dutch volleyball community" and "[is] an exemplary professional and human being".^[38] Sentenced on 21 March 2016 to four years in prison,^[39] he was transferred to the Netherlands due to an extradition treaty, where he was re-sentenced under Dutch law^[40] and subsequently released on 17 March 2017. Comments he made upon his release were criticised by British child protection charity NSPCC as showing no remorse and being full of self-pity.^[37]^[36]

In June 2024, NeVoBo described the conviction as a "black period" and said Van de Velde was "obviously not happy" about it being brought up ahead of his appearance at the Olympics.^[41] NeVoBo said that they have a professionally guided process for convicted criminals to partake in sport, and that Van de Velde met all their conditions, and all guidelines for Olympic participation.^[35] The IOC refused to comment.^[41] There was significant criticism directed at NOC*NSF for the selection. Advisors on safety in sport said the Dutch nonchalance towards the selection was concerning, and that Van de Velde's participation "sends a dangerous message that medals and money mean more than [the] safety [of minors in sports]."^[41]^[42] A nonprofit that supports survivors of sexual abuse criticised Dutch sports media for a lack of attention on Van de Velde, especially when compared to how much the same media reported on inconsequential news, like footballer Memphis Depay's choice of headwear.^[43]

The British Olympic Association "raised serious concerns" when Van de Velde was confirmed,^[44]^[45] and the Australian Olympic Committee later said that a convicted rapist would never be allowed to be involved with their team,^[46] due to their safeguarding rules.^[42] The Dutch Olympic Committee faced international criticism.^[47]^[48] In a statement on their website, NeVoBo criticised foreign media outlets for "rekindl[ing] the past".^[43] A petition on the online platform Change.org calls for the convicted athlete to be disqualified from the Paris Games. The petition had been signed more than 90,000 times before Van de Velde's first match.^[49]^[50] On 17 July, NOC*NSF said that Van de Velde would not stay in the Olympic Village but be provided alternative accommodation and security elsewhere. In the statement, the NOC*NSF stated that it regretted "the impact of the unforeseen renewed attention to anyone facing trauma from sexual offences and cross-border behaviour."^[51] On 25 July, leaders of anti-violence organisations called for the IOC to investigate how Van de Velde was allowed to be selected.^[42] When he debuted at the Games on 28 July, his name being announced was met with audible booing from the crowd as well as announcement applause. Fans at the stadium asked about him by the BBC were largely disapproving that he was allowed to compete, with the exception of Dutch fans, many of whom opined that he had served his sentence.^[50]
