Attempts to close gulf between players
Levelling the playing field for all seven domestic rugby teams remains the aim for club bosses, according to Manx Radio's rugby correspondent.
Regular fixtures ending in one-sided scorelines mean Douglas Celts and Southern Nomads appear streets ahead of their other on-Island rivals.
A 'one-size-fits-all' approach is being taken to cater for the more skilled players and those who participate on a more casual basis.
But Dave Christian says the solution is proving difficult to come by:
FC Isle of Man and AFC Liverpool to meet in vital hunt for points
Hockey: Cup finals double-header on the cards
Rugby: Douglas to host Sandbach in big top-of-the-table clash
Football: Prem title contenders Corinthians and Peel to meet
