SA team ‘full of hope’ as Commonwealth Games gets under way
‘We go there full of hope’ With this mix of youth and experience, the SA squad will be aiming to achieve a top-10 finish in the overall medals table for the eighth successive edition of the multi-sport spectacle.
At the last edition of the Games, in Birmingham in 2022, the SA team were represented by 217 athletes in 18 sports, but in Glasgow the squad includes 112 athletes in 10 sports (athletics, bowls, boxing, cycling, gymnastics, judo, netball, swimming, weightlifting and 3×3 basketball).
Though they will have fewer athletes competing in fewer codes than usual, the South African team are in the same boat as every other squad, and they will be confident of putting up a fight for another top-10 finish in the medals table at the Commonwealth Games.
