Boxing Scotland is delighted to announce its inclusion in the sports programme for the Glasgow 2026 Commonwealth Games.
Boxing Scotland Chief Operating Officer Marianne Crichton said ‘We are honoured to be part of the 10-sport programme, and we extend our heartfelt thanks to Commonwealth Games Scotland and the Commonwealth Games Federation for this invaluable opportunity.
“Boxing holds a unique place in Commonwealth Games history, as the only sport to have secured medals for Scotland at every Games since their inception. It is more than just a sport, it reaches into the farthest corners of our communities, bringing people together and offering a platform for our athletes to excel on a global stage.”
“At Boxing Scotland, we are deeply committed to building on this proud legacy. Our work, both now and in the lead-up to Glasgow 2026, focuses on ensuring our athletes are fully prepared to surpass our remarkable achievements in Birmingham 2022, where we earned three gold and two bronze medals for Team Scotland. Our athletes and coaches are dedicated to the challenge ahead, as are the wider staff team and we are confident in our ability to set new records at Glasgow 2026.”
“With this inclusion, we renew our pledge to continue nurturing boxing talent across the nation, striving for excellence in every corner of Scotland. We are determined to make Glasgow 2026 another defining moment in Scotland’s sporting history.”
