Football draws scrapped by organisers

Thursday, 5 May 2011 22:52

The draws for the football tournaments at this summer's NatWest Island Games have been scrubbed.

The extraordinary action was taken after the overseeing technical commitee of the Island Games Association raised issues with the Isle of Wight Football Association and the main organising committee.

It has been agreed that a fresh draw will be made tomorrow (Friday) morning.

For the record, the Isle of Man men's team was drawn in Group C, with Guernsey, Gotland and the Falkland Islands.

The women drew Gibraltar and Greenland.
