Common Wealth games

In 2014 the CommonWealth Games were held in the city of Glasgow in Scotland In the United Kingdom. There were different countries competing from all over the CommonWealth.
New Zealand sent many different teams of athletes representing many different sports.

We managed to win 45 medals which gave us 5th place on the medal table. This was a great result for such a small population. The sport I watched and enjoyed was Boxing and it was New Zealand that won a medal from Boxing.

David Nyika was 18 years old and won the light heavy belt. David Nyika was happy when he won the bonus gold medal.
I enjoyed watching the Common Wealth Games on TV and was proud to be a New Zealander.

Hi Munokoa
I see some mistakes in your work like, The light heavy belt it was the heavy weight belt and wealth does not have a capital w. Than otherwise it's all right.
