Around 1,000 children taking part
It's about cultivating healthy lifestyles and engaing children in sports - that from the Education and Children Minister on today's annual Manx Youth Games.
Graham Cregeen is there to support students in school years 2-10, representing all five regions at the National Sports Centre - in the Island's biggest multi-sport event.
Teen Ben Grainger was encouraged to go pro after taking part - he's last year's 'Disability Sports Person of the Year' after winning a place in the British Para-Swimming Academy, with hopes he'll compete at Tokyo 2020.
Around 1,000 children are participating - Mr Cregeen says it's an inspiration:
