Andorra is scheduled to compete at the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, China, from 4 to 20 February 2022.[1][2]
On January 19, 2022, the Andorran Olympic Committee announced a team of four athletes (two per gender) competing in two sports.[3] During the announcement, it was also announced the Andorran flag would be carried by a volunteer at the opening ceremony as the alpine skiers would not arrive till later and the cross-country skiers had competition the next day.[4] However, two days later, snowboarder Maeva Estevez was added to the team and named as flagbearer at the opening ceremony.[5] This increased the team size to five athletes (two men and three women).[6][7][8]
