The Welsh Judo Association is thrilled with the confirmation that judo has been included in the programme for the 2026 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow. This is an exciting development for our sport, and we believe it offers a fantastic opportunity for our Welsh judoka to showcase their talents on a major stage.

We are looking forward to working closely with our partners at Commonwealth Games Wales to establish the selection criteria for these Games. This process will ensure that our athletes are best prepared to represent Wales with pride and determination. The selection criteria will be announced in due course.

Judo’s inclusion in this prestigious event highlights the sport’s growing influence across the Commonwealth. We are confident that Team Wales will build on past successes and contribute to what promises to be an outstanding Games in Scotland.

As we move forward, we remain committed to supporting our athletes and ensuring they are ready for this incredible opportunity. Further details on the selection process and preparations will be shared in the coming months.
