ELISE Glynn has earned a place in Team England’s boxing squad for the 2026 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow this summer.

The Solihull fighter forms part of a 14-fighter England squad with Glynn to box in the women’s 57kg category.

Glynn has a 38-16 record in the amateur ranks and joins Ruby White, Lauren Mackie, Lucy Kings-Wheatley, Sacha Hickey, Chantelle Reid and Mary-Kate Smith in the women’s squad.

The 24-year-old is part of the Great Britain Olympic programme and trains with the GB boxing squad in Sheffield.

Glynn will represent England at the Games for the first time in Glasgow and has multiple World Boxing Cup medals to her name.

Team England chef de mission, Jonathon Riall, said: “Our boxing team brings a wealth of experience ahead of what will be a standout spectacle at Glasgow 2026.




“Team England has such a rich history in the ring and I know our team in Glasgow will do their best to continue that record.”

Team England boxing team leader at Glasgow 2026, Chris Connelly, added: “It’s an incredibly exciting moment to announce this team.


“Every athlete has earned their place through years of hard work, dedication and consistent performances in the ring, and it’s fantastic to see so many of them come through the England Boxing pathway.

“This squad reflects the depth of talent and strength of boxing across England.

“Selection is a proud milestone for the athletes, but it’s an equally proud moment for the coaches, clubs and families who have supported them every step of the way.

“We hope clubs across the country look at this team with pride, knowing they’ve played an important part in making this achievement possible.”

Team England have won more boxing medals than any other country in the history of the Commonwealth Games.
