Ukraine was represented by 240 athletes in 15 sports.[3] Ukraine did not compete in athletics since it was combined with the European Team Championships Third League competition and Ukraine was at that time in the Super League division. Ukraine was represented by the maximum number of athletes in archery, beach soccer, diving, gymnastics, synchronised swimming, table tennis, triathlon and wrestling.
Ukraine achieved maximum quotas. Men's team qualified through the performance at the 2014 European Archery Championships in Echmiadzin and women's team through 2015 European Archery Grand Prix in Marathon. Ukraine was the only nation to win a medal in each team event, though it failed to win any individual medal.
Ukraine did not manage to qualify a team in men's competition, since only Top-5 or Top-6 (considering the host quota) in FIE Official Team Ranking were able to qualify, but all male competitors as well as Olga Leleyko and Yana Shemyakina qualified through FIE Official Individual Ranking without the need to compete in the Qualification Tournament.
Andriy Yahodka unexpectedly became the champion, while Olha Kharlan failed to qualify even for knock-out stage.
Ukraine qualified a total of six athletes after the performance at the 2013 Aerobic Gymnastics European Championships.[4][5] One gymnast from pairs had to compete in the group event making the total athletes to 6.
At the Games, Ukrainian male gymnasts managed to qualify for all apparatus finals (the limitation was one competitor from a country in a final) while no Ukrainian female athlete got to any apparatus final.
Ukraine qualified two athletes based on the results at the 2014 European Trampoline Championships. The gymnasts competed in both the individual and the synchronized event.
Ukraine athletes managed to qualify for almost all events with the exception of men's trap, men's double trap, women's trap and, respectively, mixed team trap. Ukraine was represented in majority of events by two shooters, except for both men's and women's skeet competitions as well as women's 25 metre pistol.
Though Ukrainian athletes reached several finals, they failed to win a medal. Ukraine became together with the Czech Republic the biggest team in shooting that has not won a medal.
Ukraine qualified a boys' team through 2015 European Games Qualification Tournament A in Nijverdal by finishing second behind Greece. Ukraine ranked 15th with only one victory against Malta.
