Nauru competed in the 2014 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, Scotland from July 23 to August 3, 2014.[2] Nauru's team consisted of ten athletes in four sports.[3] Participating for the seventh time, Nauru, the smallest sovereign state in the Commonwealth of Nations, holds a "remarkable" record at the Commonwealth Games, having won twenty-eight medals during their first six participations, of which ten gold.[4] Weightlifter Yukio Peter, Nauru's only gold medallist at the 2010 Games, did not defending his title in Glasgow, but Delhi weightlifting silver medallist Itte Detenamo was present.[3]
Due to a scheduling conflict between the Commonwealth Games and the 2014 Micronesian Games in Pohnpei, Nauru had to split its delegation between the two events.[5]
