Australia at the 1928 Summer Olympics
Australia took part in Amsterdam in the Netherlands at the Summer Olympic Games in 1928. Due to economic problems of the Commonwealth of Australia was able to take only the funding for ten athlete, as the cost of travel 720 Australian Dollar was. However, more athletes were allowed to participate on the condition that the costs were covered by private or municipal donors either. Thus, eight more athletes could participate, even Dunc Gray, who won a bronze medal later.
