Cambodia has confirmed it will send a 333-member delegation to the 2025 Southeast Asian (SEA) Games in Thailand, competing across 21 sports. The event runs from 3 to 20 December, with the official opening ceremony scheduled for 9 December in Bangkok.

 

The National Olympic Committee of Cambodia (NOCC) announced that athletes will take part in disciplines ranging from athletics, swimming and gymnastics to martial arts such as judo, taekwondo, karate and jiu-jitsu. The line-up also includes football, volleyball, wrestling,

 

pencaksilat, kickboxing, petanque, sepaktakraw, chinlone, jet ski, wushu, table football and e-sports.

 

Vath Chamroeun, Secretary General of the NOCC, said Cambodia’s delegation will receive special support from the host nation, with athletes and officials accommodated together in Bangkok. He stressed that, despite ongoing border tensions between Cambodia and Thailand, the Games should be seen purely as a sporting event. “Competitions are not political platforms, but technical contests that create peace and harmony,” he reminded.

 

Cambodia enters the Games with confidence after a strong showing in 2023, when it hosted the event and finished fourth overall. That year, the country secured 81 gold, 74 silver and 127 bronze medals, totalling 282.

 

The 2025 SEA Games will be staged across ten Thai provinces: Bangkok, Nonthaburi, Pathum Thani, Samut Prakan, Nakhon Pathom, Chonburi, Rayong, Songkhla, Chiang Mai and Ratchaburi. Bangkok, Chonburi and Songkhla will serve as the main hubs for competition.

 

For Cambodia, the Games represent both a sporting challenge and a chance to showcase its athletes on a regional stage. With 333 competitors and officials preparing to cross the border, the delegation is one of the largest the country has ever sent.

 

As the countdown begins, organisers in Thailand are finalising venues and logistics, while Cambodian athletes continue their preparations. The NOCC insists the focus will remain firmly on performance, unity and respect for the Olympic spirit, hoping to build on the momentum of recent success.
