Today will be the final day of competition at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, with the closing ceremony taking place this evening.
There have been strong performances from all of the home nations, with several young athletes making names for themselves over the last couple of weeks.
Here, Sports Mole looks at some of the standout performers who could be in contention for medals at the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro.
Claudia Fragapane - gymnastics
Gymnast Claudia Fragapane, 16, announced her arrival on the senior scene with a haul of four gold medals in Glasgow, including the all-around individual prize.
The Bristol teenager, who was part of Britain's silver-medal winning team at the European Championships earlier this year, stands at just 4ft 6in, but can execute powerful tumbles and somersaults during her floor routine and vaults.
With the inclusion of China, Russia and America at the Olympics, Fragapane will face stiffer competition in Rio, but she is still a young, developing gymnast who will be an even stronger competitor in two years time.
Jack Laugher - diving
In recent years, Tom Daley has been the star of British diving, but Jack Laugher has arguably stolen his limelight with his success at the Commonwealth Games.
The 19-year-old Englishman wrapped up gold in the 1m springboard competition, before adding a silver in the 3m event the following day and another gold in the 3m synchonised alongside Chris Mears.

While there will be no 1m events at the Olympics, Laugher will surely be in with a shout of a medal in the 3m event in Rio.
He has room to improve, having made an error during the individual 3m competition, and two more years of practice with Mears will only enhance their synchro partnership.
Jazz Carlin - swimming
Jazz Carlin was competing at her second Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, but was spurned on by missing out on a place at the Olympics in 2012.
The Welsh swimmer dominated the 800m freestyle event, earning comparisons to former Olympic champion Rebecca Adlington as she won gold while posting a Games record time.

The 23-year-old's personal best at the distance is now just seven seconds outside Katie Ledecky's world record, and she seemed to have pace to spare as she completed the race, so there is the potential for Carlin to go even quicker.
While she will have to face the formidable Ledecky, who is still only 17 years old, if she wants to compete in the 800m in Rio, Carlin must surely be considered one of her main rivals.
Alex Dowsett - cycling
Time trial champion Alex Dowsett has been considered a promising talent in cycling circles for some years now, but his performance at Glasgow earlier this week showed that he is capable of fulfilling the promise.
With Sir Bradley Wiggins suggesting that he will not be focusing on the roads in the build up to the next Olympics, reigning British time trial champion Dowsett could have a real chance of retaining Team GB's 2012 gold, won by Wiggins, in Rio.

As a professional road cyclist, Dowsett's priorities are likely to lie elsewhere with the likes of the Tour de France and the Giro d'Italia, but the chance to win Olympic gold would surely be a tempting prospect.
Nile Wilson - gymnastics
Nile Wilson may not have the most medals of England's gymnastic team - that honour goes to Max Whitlock - but the 18-year-old was outstanding in his first senior event.
The Leeds gymnast won gold in the team event and on the high bar, while also claiming a silver on the parallel bars and a bronze in the all-around event, which was won by Whitlock.
Having won six golds at the Junior European Championships earlier this year, Wilson's progression into the senior ranks has been seemingly flawless.
As with Fragapane, he will face tougher opponents in Rio, but another two years of experience and advice from teammates such as Whitlock and Louis Smith should leave Wilson in with a chance of a medal in 2016.
