President of the Estonian Olympic Committee (EOK) Urmas Sõõrumaa wished the team every success in Paris. "July 5 is a symbolic day for the Olympic Movement, as it was 100 years ago on that day that the Summer Olympic Games began in Paris. Today, we are sending our future heroes to the Olympics, and we have also lit the Olympic flame in their honor in Pirita, in honor of them. My personal wish for you all is that, in addition to the work you have done and the gifts that nature has given you, you will also be lucky enough to make the most of your dreams in Paris. Congratulations and good luck."
According to the EOK's porting director Martti Raju, Estonia is sending a strong team to Paris. "Although the number of athletes representing Estonia may seem small, the cross-section of sports is strong. There will be three different Olympic villages in Paris (Paris, Chateauroux, Marseille), with shooting and sailing completely on their own. This in turn requires more support staff, but the athletes will have everything they need," Raju said.
The 2024 Paris Summer Olympics start on July 26 and finish on August 11.
