The tug of war contest at the 1912 Summer Olympics consisted of a single match as only two teams entered the competition.Sweden was represented by the Stockholm Police while Great Britain’s team came from the defending champion City of London Police. Austria Bohemia and Luxembourg had all entered teams but failed to appear.The withdrawals of those three teams turned what had been planned as a 10-match round-robin tournament into a single-match bout between Sweden and Great Britain.
