June will be a busy month for sport next year with the Island hosting the ConIFA European Football Championship directly after the TT fortnight.
12 international teams, and the home team Ellan Vannin will descend on the Island, along with hundreds of supporters and media from around the world.
The tournament will follow a similar format to the ConIFA World Football Cup held in Sweden this year which saw the Isle of Man team finish runners up.
MIFA chief executive Malcolm Blackburn has branded it a fantastic opportunity - but owing to a technicality all matches will be played at the one location of the Bowl:
