Ariddia's presence at the First Winter Olympics will be overseen by the Ariddian Olympic Committee (C.O.A). The delegation's official sports' code is ARI.

Ariddia has announced it will be sending thirteen athletes for individual events, two teams of two athletes for bobsleigh, and two ice hockey teams, which puts the PDSRA's full delegation at 60 athletes. Jean-Michel Chang will be the team's flag-bearer at the Opening Ceremony.

Delegation & results

Given Ariddia's climate (temperate to tropical) and geography (flat and forested), Ariddians have few facilities to train for outdoor winter events, and are thus all but absent from skiing events.

Please note, this list has not yet officially been confirmed by the C.O.A., and is thus subject to change. Additionally, the scheduling of events may prevent athletes from competing in multiple events.
