Wales is one of six countries to have competed in every Commonwealth Games since 1930, the others being Australia, Canada, England, New Zealand and Scotland. The Commonwealth Games is the only major sporting event where Wales takes part as a separate entity, apart from the Six Nations Rugby Championship Rugby World Cup and international association football competitions, as in other events, such as the Olympic Games, they compete under the banner of the United Kingdom. The Commonwealth Games Council for Wales ((ウェールズ語:Cyngor Gemau Gymanwlad Cymru)) manages the team's entry to the games and supports Welsh athletes in their participation. Wales has hosted one Commonwealth Games to date, the 1958 British Empire and Commonwealth Games in Cardiff. Wales also hosted the 1978 inaugural Commonwealth Basketball Championships with Scotland and England. Wales' pool matches were held in The National Sports Centre, Sophia Gardens. Andy Henderson and Paul Kinninmont were the coaches, with Ralph Wills the Team Manager. On completing the pool matches, Wales travelled to Coventry to play in the final rounds of the tournament. ==Overall medals tally== After the 2014 Commonwealth Games, Wales was tenth in the All-time tally of medals, with an overall total of 270 medals (57 gold, 86 silver and 127 bronze). The most gold medals that Wales have won in a Commonwealth Games is 10, at the 1990 Commonwealth Games in Auckland. The largest medal haul was at the 2014 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, at which Wales won 36 medals including five gold. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Wales at the Commonwealth Games」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
