Guatemala continues to expand its medal haul at the Central American and Caribbean Games Santo Domingo 2026.
The national delegation has 15 medals—two gold, four silver and nine bronze—and occupies seventh place in the general medal table until July 27.
Six disciplines have already contributed medals for the country. Badminton and taekwondo top the list with four medals each, although taekwondo accounts for the two gold medals obtained so far.
Guatemala medal table by sport
Badminton and taekwondo lead Guatemala’s medal haul with four medals each. They are followed by shots, with three; oar, with two; while judo and archery record one medal each.
Badminton shares the lead in the medal table
Badminton has four medals for Guatemala. The first came with the silver obtained by the mixed team, while Yeison del Cid won bronze in men’s singles, Diana Corleto won bronze in women’s doubles and Nikté Sotomayor obtained the same medal in women’s singles.
The discipline still has options to increase that number, since several national badminton players continue in competition.
