Egypt competed at the 2019 African Games held from 19 to 31 August 2019 in Rabat, Morocco.[1] In total, 297 athletes were expected to represent Egypt at the games.[2] This later increased to 330 athletes. Athletes representing the country won 102 gold medals, 98 silver medals and 73 bronze medals and the country finished 1st in the medal table.
The 2019 African Games were the 12th edition of the continental multi-sport event. The games featured over 6,500 athletes from 54 countries competing in 26 sports. Egypt's impressive medal haul included victories in athletics, boxing, weightlifting, taekwondo, and karate, among other sports. The country's performance in the games was particularly notable, as it marked the first time since 1991 that Egypt had finished at the top of the medal table. The success was celebrated throughout the country, with many lauding the achievements of the Egyptian athletes as a source of national pride.
Later five Egyptian athletes (Abderrahmane Al Sayed, Ibrahim Moustafa, Samar Hossein, Sara Ahmed Samir, Farag Salma) were disqualified due to anti-doping violations.[3]
