3x3 basketball

By virtue of its status as the top Commonwealth Caribbean nation in the FIBA 3x3 Federation Rankings for women (on 1 November 2021), Saint Lucia was originally invited to play in the women's tournament.[2][3] However, the basketball federation declined the invitation on account of not being able to send an adequately prepared squad to the Games.[4]
