The appearance of this delegation marked the tenth appearance of Chad at the Summer Olympics at the 1964 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, Japan, and its seventh appearance since its Olympic hiatus between 1976 and 1980. Both Sébergué and Ndikert ranked seventh in their respective heats and did not advance past the qualification round. As of the end of the Beijing Olympics, there have been no medalists from Chad.

I see the summer glow,

The warm rosebuds below.”
