High hopes for medals in several areas next month
A large Manx contingent is set to contest the various shooting competitions at next month's Island Games in Guernsey.
Among those are the 13-strong clay shooting squad which will compete across six different disciplines.
Mark Riley - who'll be involved in the Olympic Trap and Automatic Ball Trap events - says some team members are quietly confident about their chances of gaining medals.
But he adds the competitors are aiming to enjoy the event in a number of different ways:
