Gary Weightman has been appointed as the new General Secretary of the International Island Games Association (IIGA).
A well known and respected photographer, Gary has been appointed to replace outgoing secretary Andy Varnom.
The first chairman of FC Isle of Man, Gary has held various positions with amateur sport organisations on the island.
The IIGA said it is “delighted to have him join the Island Games family”.
It added: “The current General Secretary, Andy Varnom is not leaving the IIGA, he is being co-opted on to the Executive Committee and will be working closely with Gary in the IIGA office at the National Sports Centre in the Isle of Man.”
The IIGA is the organiser of the Island Games, which will be held in Orkney later this year.
Gary said: “Huge shoes to fill following Andy. I’m really looking forward to being involved with all the member islands and doing what I can to help make the Games going forward as good as they can be.”
