Local success sparks new wave of enthusiasm for sport
The Island's sports coaching co-ordinator is advising clubs to prepare for a boost in participation in 2020.
It's an Olympic Games year with the quadrennial event taking place in Tokyo this time around.
Many people were inspired to take up new sports after the London 2012 Games, while Manx shooter Tim Kneale almost medalled at the event four years ago in Rio.
Trevor Christian believes success stories often spark a new wave of sporting enthusiasm:
FC Isle of Man face Cheadle Town in quest to bounce back
Rugby: Douglas and Widnes to meet in battle for play-offs
Football: Premier league top two to meet in FA Cup semi-finals
