The Chairman of the Sports Council has admitted he was disappointed by the lack of medal success achieved by the Isle of Man, at July's Natwest Island Games in Rhodes.
Eleven golds was the lowest number won by a Manx team since the event started in 1985.
Geoff Karran says the Island Games are second only to the Commenwealth Games in importance, so selection should reflect that status.
He believes only genuine medal contenders should be sent to represent the Island:-
FC Isle of Man soundly beaten at Nelson
Ravens concede four on day to forget in Lancashire
Supertwins to remain eligible for Manx Grand Prix in 2027
Machines have been removed from the TT going forward
Cycling: TLI Championships return to the Island
Three races taking place across today and tomorrow (12-13 Sept)
We can approach Nelson challenge with no fear, says Dixon
But FC Isle of Man Manager says good work ethic will be key
