Glasgow Commonwealth Games: Wales bid for 3×3 wheelchair basketball spots

For many athletes, the opportunity to represent their country remains the pinnacle of sport and that is certainly the case for Morgan.

“It’s a great privilege being able to compete for your country,” she said.

“Wales especially, we’re a very proud nation, a very small nation, so I think being able to compete on that international stage, it’s massive and I don’t think I can imagine topping.”

Men’s squad member Bishop agrees: “It’s a huge honour to represent Team Cymru again at the Commonwealth Games qualifiers.

“I can’t wait to get on the court, compete hard, and give everything alongside my team-mates – Cymru am byth (Wales for ever).”

For Wales, success would mark a historic breakthrough.

“The whole squad have really come together and worked so hard to prepare; it made the selection decisions very difficult, but I’m very grateful for everyone’s contribution,” said men’s coach Caroline Mathews MBE

“Now we need to put it all into practice on the court.”
