The Isle of Man Sporting Excellence Programme will be launched at the National Sports Centre this morning (Saturday).
The partnership with Kelly Holmes Education brings together the Island's Commonwealth Games Association, Isle of Man Sport and the Coaches Association.
Over 50 competitors and 30 coaches from a wide range of sports are set to benefit from the education scheme.
Double Olympic Champion athlete Dame Kelly Holmes says she's delighted to be helping Manx sport and feels coaches have a big part to play in success stories:
Football: Colby stun defending champions in Hospital Cup
Rugby: Douglas beaten in Regional 2 North West play-offs
Spirited FC Isle of Man lose out at Padiham
Hockey: IoM Women's Over-45's set for EH Championship semi-final
