Wales at the 1934 British Empire Games

Wales at the 1934 British Empire Games (abbreviated WAL), has competed in every edition of the Commonwealth Games. Wales had only sent swimmers to the 1930 games and therefore were able to send more athletes this time with the games being in London. The team doubled their medal tally but failed to take a gold medal.

Wales came 8th overall in the games held from 4 to 7 August but runner Reg Thomas did not compete for Wales, because of English objections (he had competed for England at the 1930 British Empire Games). Four of the medals came from the boxing team.
