Basque pelota at the Games of the II Olympiad
In addition to the scheduled amateur Basque pelota tournament, a professional tournament was played at Borghese Street, number 26, Neuilly-sur-Seine. [1]

Date	14 June 1900
Competitors	2 from 1 nation
Medalists
José de Amézola, Francisco Villota   Spain

At the 1900 Summer Olympics, a Basque pelota tournament was contested.

Only two teams entered - one from Spain and one from France - but the French team of Maurice Durquetty and Etchegaray withdrew on the afternoon of the single contest due to a disagreement about the rules. Therefore, the contest was scratched and the Spanish team were awarded first prize. ^{[1] [2]}

This is the only Olympics to date where pelota was an official sport, being revived at the 1924, 1968 and 1992 Games as a demonstration sport.
