The Wales men's artistic gymnastics squad of Jacob Edwards, Joe Cemlyn-Jones, Elliot Vernon, Henry Lewis and Alexander Niscoveanu finished a disappointing sixth in the final of the team competition.
Canada claimed victory with England in silver and Australia taking the bronze.
The teams were competing across six disciplines with a view to helping their team towards a medal and securing their own place in the individual final.
They competed on the floor, pommel horse, rings, vault, parallel bars and horizontal bar with the judge's scores based on difficulty and execution.
Vernon and Niscoveanu qualified for the all-round individual final on Sunday after finishing 11th and 12th in qualification.
Vernon also qualified for the parallel bars final, while Niscoveanu will compete in the final of the horizontal bar.
The team final was overshadowed by a serious injury to English gymnast Gabriel Langton, who was carried off for treatment after suffering a nasty fall on the horizontal bar.
The women's team competition is on Saturday.
