NatWest Island Games hailed a success

by isleofman.com 4th July 2009

The Isle of Man Island Games team is returning home triumphant - after one of its best showings in the event for many years.

The Manx finished second in the medals table behind the Faroe Islands - and with the team one of the youngest ever sent to represent the Island, there's much promise for the future.

Competitors, trainers, officials and the media have hailed the Aland games as superbly organised and run.

Chairman of the International Island Games Association Jorgen Petterson says that's because they got their priorities right.
