RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil -- Team GB will be represented by just 55 of 366 athletes at the Olympic Games opening ceremony in Rio on Friday. Jaguars Jerseys China .British Olympic Association (BOA) officials admitted the number was likely to look small compared to other nations but said there was little they could do about it.Team GBs pre-Games training camp is at Belo Horizonte, around a 45-minute flight away from the Olympic Park in Rio, and has been the base for many of the athletes who have already arrived.It will be a fairly small delegation, said BOA chief executive Bill Sweeney. We have a big crew in Belo Horizonte training and some competing 24 or 48 hours after the opening ceremony.We expect there to be in the region of 55 or so marching athletes. So given the fact that we have 366 athletes, its a small number but their priorities are on competing not the marching bit.How the marching contingent and their teammates have travelled to Brazil has become an issue in some quarters, with athletes, particularly from track and field, being given different levels of luxury on their flights from Britain.Team GB has a partnership with British Airways but there have been flights with athletes spread throughout the same plane from business class to economy.Such a set up could cause divisions but the BOA insisted it was out of its control.We guarantee them a seat on the flight, said Sweeney. Its then up to the governing bodies themselves who they want to upgrade.Team GB has remained one of the more confident national associations going into the Games, proud both of its training base and the work it has done -- bringing in plumbers and working on facilities for six days -- to ensure the British area of the Olympic Village is comfortable for the athletes.Consequently, the UK Sport-set target of winning more than 47 medals has been bullishly backed by the governing body.We feel really confident, chef de mission Mark England said. We are here to make history. We think we have got the best ever chance.We have the most talented team that has ever been to an away Games. It is certainly the largest team we have been to an away Games for quarter of a century, since Barcelona 1992.We are 366-strong and each and every one of those athletes has a very, very good chance of doing something special out here.
