Island Games Chairman optimistic on new competition hosts
Gibraltar will be a great success in 2019.
That's the view of International Island Games Association Chairman Jorgen Pettersson.
Yesterday, it was announced that the British Overseas Territory will host the NatWest Island Games after Menorca withdrew during the summer.
It will be a smaller gathering with key sports such as Cycling, Football, Golf and Volleyball not included in the programme.
Jorgen Pettersson:
FC Isle of Man searching for elusive home win against Pilkington
Both sides played out goalless draw earlier this season
Hockey: Two leagues split for crucial stage of mixed season
Plenty still up for grabs going into final weeks of the campaign
Rugby: Douglas face big clash against Vale of Lune
Vagabonds and Ramsey back on the road again
Football: Defending prem champions Peel on the road in western clash
