Manx Youth Games participants to wear new eco-friendly shirts

Mon, 22 Nov 2021

Children set to take part in the Sporting Club Manx Youth Games in 2022 will wear new eco-friendly shirts made from recycled plastic bottles with participants invited to choose the design.

The Island’s largest multi-sport event for young people sees children take part in a series of expert led training sessions before putting their skills into action on the big day in May.

Ahead of the first sessions, the event’s new sponsor Sporting Club Isle of Man wants participants to vote for one of three eye-catching designs this month, before the winning design is unveiled at the event’s official launch on 24 January.

Julie Edge MHK, Minister for Education, Sport and Culture, said: “We are delighted that Sporting Club Isle of Man are engaging young people in innovative ways and we are confident that our flagship sporting event will continue to go from strength-to-strength.”
