North Borneo competed at the 1956 Summer Olympics in Melbourne, Australia. It was the only Olympic appearance by the former British protectorate, which formed part of the new country Malaysia in 1963.
Both of North Borneon(Sabahan) athletes competed in the same event—men's triple jump—but neither qualified for the final.
