Diolch Loteri Genedlaethol 👏 Behind every athlete, club, and sporting community in Wales is the support of National Lottery players. The National Lottery provides vital funding to Sport in Wales, which helps develop elite athletes, strengthen grassroots clubs, and improve sporting facilities across the country. Since 1994, over £356 million has been invested into Welsh sport — and every week, more than £30 million is raised for good causes, including sport in Wales. If you’ve ever played the National Lottery, you’ve played a part in supporting children, communities, coaches, and athletes across the nation — and there’s a good chance a project near you has benefited from it. @sportwales @TNLUK @LottoGoodCauses #Diolch #tîmcymru #SportWales #NationalLottery

Cymru’s most capped player and record goalscorer @JessFishlock has announced that she will retire from international football following this month's match against Australia. Diolch am bopeth, Jess. ♥️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Cardiff Met BA (Hons) Fashion Design student Jake Rowley is working with Team Wales and Specialist Sports, our official leisurewear kit partner, to design the adidas leisurewear kit for Glasgow 2026! This month, Jake swapped the classroom for the factory floor in Southampton - home to Specialist Sports leading performance sports distribution and brand marketing agency headquarters - where he saw his ideas come to life for the very first time. With support from Athlete Commission members Rosie Eccles and Tomi Roberts-Jones, he experienced what it really takes to turn a concept into a kit that will be worn on the world stage. What an incredible project with Cardiff Met and Specialist Sports, with final designs revealed in Spring 2026. …The story is just beginning... #Glasgow2026 #TîmCymru #Commonwealthsport

A huge thank you to Glasgow 2026 Organising Company, Commonwealth Games Scotland, and Commonwealth Sport for the warm welcome at this week’s CGA Open Days - A packed itinerary of updates across all functional areas ahead of next summer’s Games. Our Tîm Cymru Senior Management Team found every presentation, every discussion, and every connection hugely valuable as we near 300 days to go! It was fantastic to connect with so many of the operational team, tour key venues, and meet fellow CGAs from across the Commonwealth. Exciting times ahead as the journey to Glasgow 2026 continues! #Glasgow2026 #CommonwealthGames #TîmCymru @sportwales @thecgf @DiwylliantCymru @Glasgow_2026 @Team_Scotland
