No event last year due to Covid pandemic
The Manx Youth Games are back after being cancelled last year due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
Fourteen sports are available with BMX in for the first time.
The opening ceremony starts at the National Sports Centre at 10am with a march of competitors representing their region of the Island.
A musical aerobic warm-up will take place before children head to their venues.
