Contents

Like all Commonwealth boxing events, the competition was a straight single-elimination tournament. Both semifinal losers were awarded bronze medals, so no boxers competed again after their first loss. Bouts consisted of three rounds of three minutes each, with one-minute breaks between rounds. Beginning this year, the competition was scored using the "must-ten" scoring system.

Taylah Robertson of Australia was guaranteed to win a medal, before the event started, after she received a bye to the semi-finals, guaranteeing her at least a bronze. [1] [2]
