Selection of Steven van de Velde[edit]

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, having travelled to the United Kingdom specifically to do so when they would be alone. The British judge said that he should not be able to continue his Olympic ambitions.[2][3][4] He had initially fled to the Netherlands after the rapes, which took place in 2014, before being extradited back to the UK in 2016.[5]

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".[6] Sentenced on 21 March 2016 to four years in prison,[7] he was transferred to the Netherlands due to an extradition treaty, where he was re-sentenced under Dutch law[8] 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.[9][4]

In June 2024, NeVoBo described the conviction as a "black period" and said that van de Velde was "obviously not happy" about it being brought up ahead of his appearance at the Olympics.[6] 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.[3] The IOC refused to comment, while advisors on safety in sport said the selection and the Dutch nonchalance 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]."[6] The British Olympic Association are reportedly "uncomfortable" about his selection,[10] with the Dutch Olympic Committee facing international criticism.[11]

Archery[edit]

The Netherlands qualified four archers to the games through the 2024 European Continental Qualification Tournament and 2024 European Championships in Essen, Germany.
