NatWest
Island Games

Once every two years, thousands of athletes from around the world come together to take part in the The NatWest International Island Games. Gozo Tennis is actively working with Gozo Sports and the Ministry of Gozo in order to improve tennis facilities on the island, with the hope of participating in and hosting the games in the near future.

Although we here at Gozo Tennis are primarily motivated by the tennis aspect of the International Island Games, there are many other sports that make up the games. These sports include football, athletics, golf, sailing, cycling, judo, basketball, archery, swimming, gymnastics, volleyball and many more.

These people include the following: Mark Cavendish MBE (Isle of Man) — cycling, Kelly Sotherton (Isle of Wight) — heptathlon and 400m, Mattias Sunneborn (Gotland) — long jump and 200m, Cydonie Mothersille (Cayman Islands) — 200m and Pál Joensen (Faroe Islands) — swimming.
