Vicky Strange, one of the key figures behind Scotland's medal success at the Delhi Commonwealth Games, has been appointed head of sport competition at Glasgow 2014.

As well as playing a pivotal role in Team Scotland's second most successful Games performance ever as general team manager, Strange has also been involved in varying capacities at both the Manchester 2002 and Melbourne 2006 Commonwealth Games.

Her primary focus in her new role will be the establishment of a sport competition functional area, which will become the largest and most visible element of the sport department across all 17 Games sports.

Strange will also lead on sport-specific technical and operational planning, the development of officials and the recruitment and management of competition management teams.
