Olympic champion guest of honour for sports awards

Olympic champion Amy Williams MBE will be the guest of honour at the 2019 Isle of Man Sports Awards.

The 37-year-old from Cambridge says she's 'hugely honoured' to be attending the event on April 2, adding she's 'looking forward to celebrating all the sporting successes'.

At the Winter Games in 2010, Amy became Britain's first ever female skeleton gold medallist and the first British woman in 58 years to claim individual gold medals.

Following her retirement from sport in 2012, Amy has become an Ambassador for the British Olympic Association and has also been involved in television work including coverage on Island for the Classic TT.
