Clyde, the face of the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games, was revealed as the new Team Scotland mascot.

Following his big entrance on the night, the popular figure is back in a new role, cheering on Team Scotland all the way to Gold Coast 2018 and beyond.

The announcement was made last night at the Team Scotland Scottish Sports Awards in Edinburgh.

Paul Bush OBE, Chair of Commonwealth Games Scotland, said: “These Awards in their new format have been a resounding success as we celebrate what has been a truly outstanding year for Scottish sport. The phenomenal achievements of 2016 auger well as we look ahead to the Gold Coast Commonwealth Games in 18 months’ time, where many of these athletes will go for gold for Team Scotland.

“A huge thank you to our sponsors, whose support has made this fantastic event possible and enables us to properly recognise the achievements of the individuals, teams and organisations that help to put Scotland on the sporting map.”
