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:
