2014 Commonwealth Games

The 2014 Commonwealth Games (Scottish Gaelic: Geamannan a' Cho-fhlaitheis
2014), officially known as the XX Commonwealth Games and commonly known as XX Commonwealth Games
Glasgow 2014, (Scottish Gaelic: Glaschu 2014), was an international multi-sport event 20mh Geamannan a' Cho-
celebrated in the tradition of the Commonwealth Games as governed by the fhlaitheis
Commonwealth Games Federation (CGF). It took place in Glasgow, Scotland, from 23
July to 3 August 2014.

Glasgow was selected as the host city on 9 November 2007 during CGF General Assembly
in Colombo, Sri Lanka, defeating Abuja, Nigeria. It was the largest multi-sport event ever
held in Scotland with around 4,950 athletes from 71 different nations and territories
competing in 18 different sports, outranking the 1970 and 1986 Commonwealth Games in
Edinburgh. Over the last 10 years, however, Glasgow and Scotland had staged World,
Commonwealth, European, or British events in all sports proposed for the 2014
Commonwealth Games, including the World Badminton Championships in 1997.[6]

The Games received acclaim for their organisation, attendance, and the public enthusiasm
of the people of Scotland, with CGF chief executive Mike Hooper hailing them as "the
standout games in the history of the movement".[7][8] Held in Scotland for the third time,
the Games were notable for the successes of the Home Nations of the United Kingdom,
with England, Wales and hosts Scotland achieving their largest ever gold medal hauls and Logo of 2014 Commonwealth Games
overall medal hauls at a Commonwealth Games.[9][10] England finished top of the medal Host city Glasgow,
table for the first time since the 1986 Commonwealth Games, also held in Scotland.  Scotland[1][2][3][4]

Host selection
Scotland was the first country to consider hosting the 2014 Commonwealth Games in 2004,
with Scottish cities being invited by the Commonwealth Games Council for Scotland to
consider making a bid. In September 2004, Glasgow was announced as the Scottish
candidate city over Edinburgh (which hosted the Games in 1970 and 1986, and the inaugural
Commonwealth Youth Games in 2000) following a cost-benefit analysis by the
Commonwealth Games Council for Scotland. The Scottish Executive under then First
Minister of Scotland, Jack McConnell, with the support of the United Kingdom government
and all main parties in the Scottish Parliament, formally announced Glasgow's intention to
host the games on 16 August 2005.[12][13]

In March 2006, the bidding process began, with the Glasgow Bidding team presenting their
Special liveries in support of
case to the Commonwealth Games Federation at the 2006 Commonwealth Games in
Glasgow's bid were applied to
Melbourne, along with the other confirmed candidate cities; the Nigerian capital, Abuja and
[14] numerous subway carriages.
Halifax in Canada. In October 2006, the first voting delegates arrived in Glasgow, to
inspect the city's existing and proposed amenities and facilities. Glasgow announced on 16
January 2007, the 17 sports to be included should its bid be successful.[15] Halifax later withdrew its bid on 8 March 2007,
following the withdrawal of funding from the municipal government.[16]

That left Abuja and Glasgow as the remaining bidders, with Abuja seen as a likely favourite
due to the basis of its campaign that an African nation has never before hosted the
Commonwealth Games.[17] The deadline for formal submission of bids to the Commonwealth
Games Federation, in the form of a Candidate City File, was set for May 2007.[18] Both bids
were highly recommended, though Glasgow's bid team had made use of extensive
benchmarking against the 2002 Commonwealth Games in Manchester and the 2006
Commonwealth Games in Melbourne and as a result, its bid was deemed technically superior
according to the CGF Evaluation Report that was released in September 2007. The
Glasgow city centre.
Commonwealth Games Evaluation Commission concluded that: "Glasgow has shown it has
the ability to stage the 2014 Commonwealth Games to a standard which would continue to
enhance the image and prestige of the Games." This put Glasgow ahead in terms of the
technical comprehensiveness of its bid.[19]

The final decision on the host city of the 2014 Commonwealth Games was held in Colombo, Sri Lanka on 9 November 2007 at the
Commonwealth Games Federation General Assembly, attended by all 71 Commonwealth Games member associations. Each bid
city made a presentation to the General Assembly, the order of which was determined by drawing lots. Glasgow's delegation was
led by Louise Martin, chair of the Commonwealth Games Council for Scotland, First Minister Alex Salmond, athlete Jamie
Quarry and Leader of Glasgow City Council Steven Purcell. The presentation also included a promotional film narrated by Sean
Connery.[20] Abuja's delegation was led by General Yakubu Gowon, head of the Abuja 2014 Commonwealth Games bid team.

The CGF members later voted for their preferred candidate in a secret ballot. As there were only two bids, the winner was
announced by the CGF President, Mike Fennel, after the first round of voting, with the winner only requiring a simple majority.
The results of the bidding process were as follows:

limited company[22] whose members included the Scottish Government, Glasgow City Council and Commonwealth Games
Scotland. The Glasgow City Council was responsible for delivering a number of the venues and lasting benefits from the Games
for the city and people of Glasgow. The Scottish Government was the third organisation in the partnership and was the main
funder of the Games.[23] Lord Robert Smith was the chairman of the Glasgow 2014 Organising Committee.[24]

as well as team officials from every competing nation for the duration of the games. As well as accommodation, the athletes'
village also housed a retail zone, dining hall, medical facilities, gym, religious centre and recreational spaces.[41]

Budget

The total budget for the Games was £575.6 million. This figure included £472.3 million for Glasgow 2014 and £90 million for
security. The Glasgow 2014 budget of £472.3 million was made up of £372 million of public money with the remainder coming
from commercial income generated through sponsorship, ticket sales, broadcasting rights and merchandise sales. The budget
included contingency of £66.1 million, which was made up of a £42.3 million general contingency and £23.8 million special
reserves. In February 2015, it was reported that the Games was delivered £35.5 million under budget.[42]

Medals

The medals for the Games were unveiled on 14 April 2014 at the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum in Glasgow.[43] The medals
were designed and hand-crafted by the renowned jeweller Jonathan Boyd and a team of specialist jewellery-makers from the
prestigious Glasgow School of Art.[44] The hand-turned quaichs gifted to winning athletes and the carved ceremonial podiums
were all created from local woods by Glasgow-based artisan Paul Hodgkiss.[45] Scottish designer Kerry Nixon designed the
medalbearers’ dresses.[46]

Ticketing

The first round of the Games ticket sales were from 19 August to 16 September 2013.[47] Over two-thirds of tickets sold were
priced at £25 or less. The ticket price ranges for the opening ceremony and the closing ceremony were £40-£250 and £30-£200
respectively.[48][49] The 100m men's final event received over 100,000 applications which was the most of any event of the
Games.[50] Boxing had the most expensive ticket of any sport in the Games whose Category 1 tickets cost £120.[51] A total of 96%
of tickets were sold.[52] Ticketmaster was the official ticket services provider of the Games.[53]

Queen's baton relay

The Queen's Baton Relay began its 190,000  km journey on 9 October 2013. The baton
travelled via 70 nations and territories over 288 days before opening the games on 23 July
2014. At the ceremony, 32 inspiring volunteers from across Scotland carried the baton
around Celtic Park Stadium after being nominated for giving their time to developing the
nation's youth through sport. The baton was then passed to Sir Chris Hoy, who delivered it to
President of the Commonwealth Games Federation Prince Imran and the Queen who then
declared the games open.[54]

The Queen's Baton was designed by the Glasgow based firm 4c Design.[55][56] The BBC
Queen's Baton Relay in Thurso,
provided coverage of the relay. Adventurer Mark Beaumont presented a series of
Scotland
documentaries filmed on the relay for BBC One Scotland, there were also weekly updates for
BBC News and a BBC News website and blog written by Mark.[57]

Transport

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2014_Commonwealth_Games 4/20
6/12/2020 2014 Commonwealth Games - Wikipedia
The Glasgow Airport was used to welcome and depart the athletes and officials of the Games.[58] The
main terminal building of the Glasgow Airport was upgraded at a cost of £17 million.[59]

During the games, spectators were encouraged to use the public transport, particularly for longer
journeys as they make their way to the venues of the games. The Glasgow 2014 ticket included access to
local public transport services (trains, buses and Subway) to and from the venue on the day of the
event. In order to access those services, the spectators had to show the valid event ticket on request.
The spectators were also encouraged to walk or use bicycles instead of motor vehicles to reach the
venues in order to avoid traffic jam.[60]

The athletes were transported in minibuses or coaches, which used, where necessary, dedicated lanes –
known as the Games Route Network – to ensure they were given priority over other traffic in a similar
way buses are in bus lanes. These lanes formed part of a larger dedicated Games Route Network that
Queen's Baton
was also used by the people working on the Games.[61]

Volunteering

Approximately 12,500 volunteers were hired for the Games[62] out of over 50,000 applicants
which was more than the number who applied for Melbourne 2006 and Manchester
2002.[63] The army of volunteers enlisted to help during the Games were known as Clyde-
siders.[64] The uniforms for the volunteers were created by the outdoor clothing
manufacturer Trespass.[65]

Olrig Street in Thurso
An integrated security team which involved Police Scotland, Glasgow 2014’s Security team
and private sector partners, was developed to manage the security and stewarding
requirements for the Games.[66][67] More than 17,000 individuals were involved in this
operation, where over 2,000 members were from the armed forces and the rest from the Police Scotland and 17 private sector
companies.[68][69] The budget for the Games security was around £90 million.[70]

Opening ceremony

Directed by David Zolkwer with David Proctor (Executive Producer) and Sarah Gardiner (Creative Producer).

The programme, which included about 2,000 performers, featured Karen Dunbar, John Barrowman, Amy Macdonald, Rod
Stewart, Susan Boyle, Nicola Benedetti, Julie Fowlis, Eric Whitacre, and Pumeza Matshikiza, as well as a message from the
International Space Station. The ceremony began with a countdown and a recorded video message from Scottish actor Ewan
McGregor, explaining the partnership between the Games and UNICEF. Following the arrival of the Queen there was a flypast by
the Red Arrows display team. The venue featured the largest LED video screen in Europe, supplied by Sports Technology.
Scotland's then First Minister Alex Salmond welcomed the participants and spectators, and introduced a moment of silence in
memory of the Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 disaster. The final part of the Queen's Baton Relay was run by 32 Scottish volunteers
nominated for giving their time to developing the nation's youth through sport. The baton was then passed to Sir Chris Hoy, who
delivered it to President of the Commonwealth Games Federation Prince Imran and the Queen. The display of the message
concealed within the baton was delayed by a difficulty in opening the device. The Games were launched in partnership with
UNICEF, to save and change children's lives. The unique partnership aimed "to use the power of sport to reach every child in
Scotland and benefit children in every Commonwealth nation and territory." In the culmination of a groundbreaking partnership
with UNICEF, the ceremony inspired millions to text donations to our shared ‘Put Children First’ campaign, which raised £3.5
million on the night and more than £5 million to date.[71]

Closing ceremony

Directed by David Zolkwer with David Proctor (Executive Producer) and Sarah Gardiner (Creative Producer).

The closing ceremony took a visual theme of a music festival, with performers, tents, and flags within the stadium. The ceremony
began with Scottish singer Lulu welcoming the athletes of the games. Scottish band Deacon Blue performed their signature song
"Dignity". During this the workers of Glasgow were recognised as they paraded along the front of the main stand at Hampden,
some on foot, others in their work vehicles. Local band Prides performed their hit song "Messiah". Speeches followed, with Prince
Imran telling the crowd that the games were "pure dead brilliant", a local Glaswegian term. The games were officially closed and
handed over to the Gold Coast for 2018, who began their own performance with Australian singer Jessica Mauboy. Kylie

Minogue then performed a seven-hit songs set list, while the volunteer cast told the story of "a typical Glasgow night out". Her
costume was designed by Jean Paul Gaultier and headpiece designed by millinery designer Lara Jensen. The show ended with
Dougie MacLean performing Caledonia with the other performers, and a performance of "Auld Lang Syne".[72]

The Games

Medal table

Only the top ten successful nations are displayed here. The ranking in this table is consistent with International Olympic
Committee convention in its published medal tables. By default, the table is ordered by the number of gold medals the athletes
from a nation have won (in this context, a "nation" is an entity represented by a Commonwealth Games Association). The
number of silver medals is taken into consideration next and then the number of bronze medals. If nations are still tied, equal
ranking is given and they are listed alphabetically by their three-letter country code.[153][154]

Two bronze medals were awarded in boxing, judo and wrestling, except for Women's freestyle 75 kg as only five competitors were
entered in the event. Additionally, two bronze medals were awarded in the men's 100 m backstroke and women's pole vault as a
result of a tie between two athletes. No bronze medal was awarded in the men's synchronized 10 metre platform as only four
teams competed in the event. Therefore, the total number of bronze medals is greater than the total number of gold or silver
medals.

Bid and interim logo

The interim logo for the Games was first used during Glasgow's bid, with the "Candidate
City" section removed following 9 November 2007, when the bid was approved. The logo
depicts two sprinters woven into a tartan motif, representing Scotland. The logo also vaguely
resembles the Clyde Auditorium, one of Glasgow's most recognisable landmarks. The
pattern, forming the Roman numerals XX, also represents the 20th edition of the
Commonwealth Games. The text is more specifically Glaswegian, with its stylised
Mackintosh font. A flag featuring the logo was used extensively during the bid process. The
flag was flown above Merchant House in George Square daily.[155]

The Games brand identity

The full Games brand identity was developed by Glasgow design studio Tangent
Graphic, the lead creative agency between 2010 and 2014. Tangent's first major project
was the official sport Pictograms, launched on 23 July 2011, and they continued to
deliver and influence every aspect of the Glasgow 2014 identity.[157][158] Tangent
inherited the official logo which was designed by Marque Creative.[159] The logo was
unveiled on Commonwealth Day, 8 March 2010.[160] It was inspired by three factors,
time, data and measurement. Its rings are proportioned to represent the 20th
Commonwealth Games, across 17 sports, over 11 days in 1 city. An animated version of
the logo has also been produced.[161]

There is also a version of the logo in Scottish Gaelic. Arthur Cormack, the Chair of Bòrd
na Gàidhlig, made the following official statement:
Murals painted in the buildings of Glasgow
"Bòrd na Gàidhlig welcomes the Gaelic version of the logo for the Glaschu 2014
Commonwealth Games and we have been happy to work with the Glaschu 2014
team in helping them develop their identity. Given the unique importance of Gaelic to Scotland and the many Scots in the
diaspora throughout the Commonwealth, we believe it should be seen, heard and spoken as widely as possible."

"Given the worldwide interest there will be in the Games when they take place in Glasgow, a city with a large number of
Gaelic speakers, we believe they offer an exciting opportunity for Gaelic to be seen and, we hope, heard and appreciated
in an international setting. We hope this is just the start; we wish the Games well and look forward to working further with
Glaschu 2014 to enhance the status of Gaelic within this hugely significant event."[162]

The official website was built in phases, delivered by Dog Digital and Blonde.[163][164] The Scottish art firm Artpistol were
commissioned by the Glasgow 2014 Organising Committee to paint a series of murals across Glasgow to help celebrate and
promote the Games.[165]

The Big G

The Big G is a standalone stage-set that was situated in George Square, Glasgow. It was
unveiled in May 2014; with Glasgow City Council leader Gordon Matheson commenting that
it provided an “opportunity for everyone – residents, visitors and spectators – to be part of
the Games”. British designing firm Evolve designed the Big G.[166]

Mascot

Clyde, an anthropomorphic thistle named after the river which flows through the centre of
The 'Big G' was set up two months
Glasgow, was the official mascot of the 2014 Commonwealth Games. The mascot was
before the Games in George Square
designed by Beth Gilmour, who won a competition run by Glasgow 2014 for children to
design the Mascot. Beth's drawing was then brought to life by digital agency Nerv, who
turned it into a commercial character, created a full backstory, gave it a name – Clyde – and
created a website for him. Clyde was finally revealed in a seven-minute animated film created
by Nerv at a ceremony at BBC Scotland's headquarters in Glasgow. The organiser, Glasgow
2014, said the mascot's design was chosen because of its "Scottish symbolism and
Glaswegian charm and likeability".[167]

25 life-size Clyde statues were erected at places of public interest across the city including the
Glasgow Botanic Gardens, the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and at George Square. However
following vandalism at a statue in the Govan area of the city, the statues were taken down.
They are expected to be re-erected in secure areas. By the final day of the Games, over
50,000 Clyde mascot cuddly toys had been sold.[168] Mascot sculpture in the Glasgow
Botanic Gardens
Due to popularity in the city, the Clyde mascots are currently proposed official mascots of the
City of Glasgow.

Controversies

Drug doping and testing

Nigeria's Chika Amalaha failed a doping test and was stripped of a gold medal in the women's 53  kg weightlifting.[169] In the
women's 400 metres final, Botswana's Amantle Montsho placed fourth; she was subsequently provisionally suspended pending
the results of a B sample after failing a doping test.[170] Montsho's B sample was reported as positive on 14 August 2014.[171]
