The immediate post-war years revealed that all was clearly not well within the British Olympic movement. Battling against the tide of widespread public and governmental apathy and opposition, the BOA persevered in its attempts to raise a British team for the forthcoming 1924 Olympic Games in Paris. Backed by a coterie of prominent patricians and Conservative politicians, the BOA endeavoured to raise the funds needed to help reclaim Britain's lost sporting prowess. In spite of the BOA's renewed efforts, the chauvinistic scenes that marred the 1924 Paris games both reaffirmed British suspicions that the Olympics were a politico-sporting contest between nation-states and sparked renewed calls for a full-scale British Olympic withdrawal
