Scotland at the 1950 British Empire Games (abbreviated SCO) was the fourth time that the nation had participated at the Games following the appearances in 1930, 1934 and 1938.[1]
The Games were held in Auckland, New Zealand, from 4 to 11 February 1950, following a twelve-year break because of World War II. Scotland came 6th overall in the medal table with five gold, three silver and two bronze medals.[2]
Funds of £6,000 were needed in order for a Scottish team to participate in the Games.[3] Charlie Usher was the team manager.[4] The team were the first to officially declare for the Games.[5][6]
