Youngsters compete in Manx Youth Games 2024

Hundreds of children took part in this year's Manx Youth Games.

On Saturday May 11, the National Sports Centre hosted the multi-sport event, which brings together children and qualified coaches from all parts of the Island.

The aim of the programme is to promote the importance of team work and other life skills, whilst encouraging young people to continue with sport after the event by joining community clubs.

Run by Manx Sport and Recreation and many dedicated volunteers, hours of preparation since the start of the year ended-up in an action-packed day of competition.
