The Island's newest resident sporting superstar says it's a pleasure to be here, and he's looking forward to starting his new, unique journey with us.
European taekwondo champion Aaron Cook has been speaking to Manx Radio on his first day in the Isle of Man.

Rugby: Hopes for more Manx sides in local competitions in future
