This year's Isle of Man Sport Coaching Festival has been cancelled.

Organisers of the event say bookings have been too low to make it viable, and believe the 'extreme circumstances' faced on Island this year may have played a part.

However, they remain optimistic for the future and are looking to provide the workshops which were scheduled as part of the occasion throughout the rest of 2020.

Isle of Man Sport is also thanking those who did book to attend and the presenters for their hard work and preparation.
