Estonia competed at the 1932 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles, United States.
Estonian Olympic Committee did not send a full team to those games due to financial problems and tried to recruit Estonians living in the United States. Most of them were not prepared to compete on a short notice, and only Alfred Maasik and Osvald Käpp agreed.
Estonian National Olympic representative was professor Ants Piip. Estonian attaché was an electrical engineer Charles Kodil.
Estonians in other delegations were Kalevi Kotkas for 
Finland (FIN) in athletics; August Lootus was a reserve for 
United States (USA) in sailing; the 1924 Summer Olympics bronze medalist Aleksander Klumberg was an athletics coach for 
Poland (POL); and Valter Palm was a boxing coach for Finland.
