Diving has been part of the Commonwealth Games programme since the 1930 Empire Games at Hamilton, Canada, but has featured at every event since, despite being an optional sport.
Historically, Canada and Australia have dominated the medal table, although England emerged from Glasgow 2014 and Gold Coast 2018 as the most successful diving team.
New Zealand has never won diving gold, but has gathered four bronze medals, the most recently to Nicky Cooney at Auckland 1990, while Jack Stewart medalled consecutively at Auckland 1950 and Vancouver 1954.
Our eight-strong contingent at Birmingham represents New Zealand's biggest-ever diving team, with Liam Stone returning for his third straight Games.
