    Almeida abandons Mathieu van der Poel makes a big bid for the days Combativity Prize with a long break with team-mate Rickaert, but looks like sprint teams have regained control.

    Results system up and working Island Games Results Orkney 2025

    Streaming working well for the Badminton but they haven't managed to get the bowls working yet - obviously the fast-paced all-action nature of the sport has broken the modem.
  6. Grassmarket
    Early start for the Badminton. Unlike in the Olympics, where there are only three courts, Orkney offers six. On islands with some of the world's highest wind speeds, people tend to prefer indoor sports.

    We just say shorts then tennis shorts, football shorts etc. Knickerbockers is the American word for Plus Fours ie what Tintin wears.

    And win the Men's Doubles for the first time in the era of short trousers.

    Yeah, not doing the big outdoor events sadly. The cycling criterium will be a great race. Can't go wrong with archery & bowls though. Football might be good as well, the Orkney v Shetland derby match goes back well over the century.

    And to think that just a few weeks ago women players had the nerve to complain because they never got the big featured prime time evening game at Roland Garros! Just take the money & run ladies!

    Ynis Mon, whose name means exactly the same thing as the Isle of Man. All done in 45 minutes, congrats !

    Menorca, enjoying the Mediterranean weather we are having in Scotland just now! Sark, with a team of 2, because no matter how small you are there is always someone smaller.

    Gotland, seemingly the only place in Scandinavia whose flag is NOT based on the St Magnus Cross. are here!

    are here to sort out any problems we might have with excessive whales.

    "Alderney, taking part in athletics & lawn bowls". Not difficult to guess which is which.
  16. Grassmarket
    Right now onto the Parade of Islands* *And Gibraltar which is a peninsula

    And we are off with an incredibly small scale opening ceremony! That's enough speeches now. Rule No 1 - one side of one piece of paper is plenty. Oh God, two pieces of paper & he waits for people to laugh, which nobody does. Princess Anne shows how it is done - half a piece of paper.

    Youth OIympic Festivals are much younger - 16-18 years I think.

    Best of the FTA meets today is from Kortrijk

    Not so fast...... Felix is proved to be a better luge pilot than a project manager - reopening delayed till October 2026. No pre-Olympic luge World Cup at Königssee due to repair delays

    OTOH the USA team for individual sports like athletics, rowing, gymnastics etc are a genuine selection. USA Team
  22. Grassmarket
    Unlike for the Soccer World Cup, for example, the US Teams for the team sports are not a national selection. Instead, they just pick a single College Team and that then becomes Team USA. So the US Women's Basketball team is basically the Texas Tech Red Raiders - but with US Nationals only. Men's Basketball is Baylor, both Water Polo teams are UCLA. World University Games Team USA Roster - Texas Tech Red Raiders

    All the draws for the early rounds of the team sports are ready. Starts off with a Day 0 on Wednesday for Volleyball. Welcome to the FISU World University Games 2025
