Wales at the 1934 Commonwealth Games was abbreviated WAL. They have competed in every edition of the Commonwealth Games.

Wales double their medal tally from the first games, but failed to take a gold medal.

Wales came 8th overall in the games.

Apparently Reg Thomas would have competed for Wales, but for English objections (he had competed for England at the 1930 British Empire Games).
