Brazil competed in the 2015 Pan American Games in Hamilton, Canada from July 10 to 26, 2015. The Brazilian Olympic Committee selected a team of 590 athletes, 314 men and 276 women.[1] This is the 17th appearance of the country in the Pan American Games. The goal of the Brazilian Olympic Committee is to finish among top 3 countries on total medals, as part of preparations for the 2016 Summer Olympics, in Rio de Janeiro, and to surpass the number of medals of Guadalajara (141). Women's field hockey, baseball, racquetball and speed skating competitions will be the only sports without Brazilian representation at these games.[2]
On July 4, 2015, the swimmer Thiago Pereira was named the flagbearer of the team during the opening ceremony.[3] Pereira has already been the Brazilian flagbearer during the 2007 Pan American Games closing ceremony.[3] Brazil's team competed in all sports except in racquetball.
