Swedish Island last held the event in 1999
It's the first day of competition in the 2017 Island Games.
The event this year is in Gotland - who last hosted the Games back in 1999.
Per Wallstedt is the Games Director.
He says there are many differences to when the Swedish Island last held the event 18 years ago:
Football: 2026/27 Manx season starts with a bang
New campaign gets underway across senior men's divisions
FC Isle of Man fall to defeat at Trafford
Ravens suffer first loss of 2026/27 season
2026 Manx International Classic Trial taking place
Two days of action being held across today and tomorrow (29-30 Aug)
Bikes aplenty planned for Jurby Day 2026
Rescheduled meeting in the north of the Island this weekend
