Manx aim to finish on a high

It's the final day of the 13th NatWest Island Games in Aland and, whatever happens, it will be one of the most successful for the Isle of Man, since the event began nearly quarter of a century ago.

At the end of the penultimate day of competition, the Manx team remained in second place in the table with 29 golds, 28 silver and 23 bronze medals.
