Rookies and old-timers included in Scotland's Commonwealth Games swim team

With less than ten weeks until the Opening Ceremony of Glasgow 2026, Team Scotland's swimming team has been finalised and the 25-strong squad includes a combination of Scotland’s most experienced athletes plus a number of fresh faces who will make their major championship debut this summer.

Spearheading the swimming squad is Scotland’s most-decorated athlete ever, Duncan Scott, who was selected for Team Scotland late last year, with the remainder of the swimming team now confirmed. Alongside Scott, fellow Olympians Katie Shanahan, Lucy Hope and Keanna MacInnes will head to Glasgow 2026, although a notable omission from the squad is Olympic relay gold medallist, Kathleen Dawson. And alongside this cohort of experienced athletes are several newcomers to the international stage who will be looking to make a name for themselves on home soil.
