The Cook Islands have competed in six Summer Olympic Games. They have never competed in the Winter Games. The Cook Islands have yet to win a medal as of 2012.
The Cook Islands are the only one of the three dependent territories of New Zealand to compete at the Olympic Games, Niue and Tokelau having not yet done so to date.
Famous quotes containing the word cook:
“A monarchy is like a man-of-war—bad shots between wind and water hurt it exceedingly; there is a danger of capsizing. But democracy is a raft. You cannot easily overturn it. It is a wet place, but it is a pretty safe one.”
—Flavius Josephus Cook (1838–1901)
