This year's Isle of Man Sports Awards have been pushed back until the summer.
The event, which had been due to take place at the Villa Marina in Douglas this month has been rescheduled for Wednesday, June 2, due to the ongoing Covid-19 restrictions.
Education, Sport & Culture Minister, Dr Alex Allinson MHK, says: "Given the current situation we had to take this decision but we hope it gives sports fans and those nominated something to look forward to this summer."
The annual occasion sees the achievements of the Island’s top athletes, teams and coaches recognised in front of sports fans, with 11 awards up for grabs.
The shortlist for the 2020 awards was announced in February and this year's event will reflect the exceptional challenges faced by many last year by shining a light on the Island’s unsung sporting heroes.
During the evening the Isle of Man Sports Aid scholarships for 2021/22 will also be presented.
The recipients of these will be announced next week along with a guest of honour for the Sports Awards.
