Monday 10th March 2008, 2:29PM GMT.

GUERNSEY are backing Bermuda to host the 2013 Island Games.

It is between Bermuda and Prince Edward Island as to who will host the 20th biennial event and it will be the first time that it has been held outside Europe.

The sheer size of PEI was an important issue when the member sports of the Guernsey Island Games Association opted to support Bermuda’s bid. According to Giga’s Island Games liaison director Jon Marley, the vastness of the Canadian island swung them towards Bermuda.
