Bahamas an Saint Lucia at the Commonwealth Games

 First Saint Lucia. They first appeared in 1962 and missed 1966, 1974, 1982, 1986 and 1990. Appeared in every other one.  They have 1g, 1s 3b for 5 medals total.  Dominic Johnson won the first ever medal in 2002, winning bronze in pole vault. Levern Spencer won the first gold in high jump in 2018.  Spencer also has two bronze (2010 and 2014). The silver was won by Julien Alfred in the womens 100m in 2022. Most medals at one games is obviously 1.

Now the Bahamas. Appeared for the first time in 1954 and have appeared since then except for 1974 and 1986.  They have 11g, 14s, 13b for 38 total. Most medals won at one games was 8 in 2002 (4g 4b). Tom Robinson won the first two medals ever in 1958 winning a gold in the 220 yards dash and silver in the 100 yards dash.

So that is Saint Lucia and the Bahamas at the Commonwealth Games.

Next is the 1984 tournament in Sarajevo Yugoslavia (now Bosnia and Herzegovina 🇧🇦).
