A Senate committee interim report sheds more light on when red flags began to emerge around the hosting of the 2026 regional Commonwealth Games. But how did we get here? And where did it go so wrong?
Field hockey has been on every program since Kuala Lumpur in 1998, and Australia’s Kookaburras and Hockeyroos have won a combined 14 medals, including seven straight golds for the men’s team.
Diving had been at every edition dating back to the 1930 Empire Games, and road cycling had featured since 1938.
Wrestling featured at the 1911 Festival of Empire and all but three — 1990, 1998 and 2006 — Commonwealth Games since then.
Glasgow, which hosted the Games in 2014, stepped in late after the Victorian government withdrew its pledge to host the event.
Organisers have said the want for a financially sustainable event, developed in a short timeframe, was a catalyst for the trimmed-down program.
“When we started pulling this concept together just under a year ago, our focus was on creating a Games that was different,” Commonwealth Games Scotland CEO Jon Doig said.
“Glasgow 2026 will have all the drama, passion and joy that we know the Commonwealth Games delivers, even if it is to be lighter and leaner than some previous editions.”
The future of the Commonwealth Games was thrown into disarray in July of 2023 when then-premier of Victoria Daniel Andrews axed the event, citing financial constraints.
Glasgow stepped in to host the Games and earmarked early on its ambition to have a trimmed-down version of the event.
If they took the concept notes on accomodation, food, and entertainment for the athletes that @Soulnet and I produced, they could easily squeeze in like four more sports and maintain the same costs.
Yeah!
Blitz committee.
Imagine how good the press releases would be.
Finally!
