Island claim opening day medal haul

The Island has secured its first medals of the NatWest Island Games in Bermuda.

Cycling secured the honour with Andrew Roche finishing third in the men’s 100km road race, also leading the team to an overall silver medal.

The men's team sealed bronze in the team triathlon, an achievement matched by the women’s tennis team.

But it was the gymnasts who stole the show.

The men’s team took silver while the women’s team, comprising Nicole Burns, Emily Dale-Beeton, Grace Harrison, Rebecca Johnson, Aoife Donnelly and Tara Donnelly, went one better.
