The NatWest Island Games in the Isle of Wight were a great success!
That's the view of the chairman of the International Island Games Association Jorgen Pettersson, after the week-long event which involved a record of over 4,000 competitors and officials.
There is concern from a number of nations about the cost of travelling to, and staying at, the next gathering, in Bermuda in 2013.
Mr Pettersson says all member islands have a responsibility to support the hosts by raising funds to send as big a team as possible:
Cycling: Expressions of interest open for 2027 Island Games squad
Isle of Man FA to meet with FC Isle of Man over women's team plans
Rugby: Manx players selected for Sale Sharks player development system
Basketball: Thrilling start to 2026/27 Manx season
