In the Ladies Team event Guernsey are 6th and Alderney 7th.

The men and the women are switching courses each day and apparently it's not only the weather conditions they have to watch out for at the Whalsay course. The majority of the course sticks out into the North Sea but the main problem for the golfers seems to come from some rather over protective Arctic Terns who are nesting on the fourth fairway. The players are getting dive-bombed when they try and walk down the fairway!

Sailboarding

Guernsey are looking good in the Sailboarding after four events with James Briggs in Gold position, Tim Laine lying just outside the medals, Simon Gregory in 8th and Jonathon Beck lies at the back of the field 14th equal with two others. But there is a long way to go with five races still to go.
