Our four athletes will form part of a 26 strong group of athletes that will represent the island across all sports. This marks the most successful Commonwealth Games selection campaign in the history of Manx lawn bowls, with more athletes chosen than ever before. Only five bowlers have previously represented the Isle of Man in the history of the sport at this prestigious multi-sport event. To have four athletes selected for a single Games is an unprecedented achievement and the strongest representation the sport has ever enjoyed on the Commonwealth stage. This achievement is a testament to the dedication, commitment and talent of our athletes, coaches and volunteers, and is a proud milestone for the sport on the Island. We congratulate all four players on their selection and wish them, and the entire Isle of Man team, every success at the Games.
