According to the Official Report, 1,350 copies of this diploma were distributed. Each medal was accompanied by a diploma. A diploma was also awarded to the winning team in the team competitions. In the individual events, a statuette was also awarded to the winners. Finally, competitors who had performed particularly well but had not won a prize also received a diploma of merit. It is not known on what criteria these were awarded, and the criteria must have varied according to the sport or even the discipline. For example, marathon runners whose time did not exceed 25% of the winner's time were to receive this diploma.
