Double Olympic champion Dame Kelly Holmes has launched the Isle of Man Sporting Excellence programme ahead of the 2014 Commonwealth games.

A workforce of specialist tutors, mentors and speakers will deliver a series of educational workshops designed to help athletes improve their performances at Glasgow 2014.

The scheme is supported by three of the Island's most well-known businesses Creechurch Capital, Microgaming and SMP Partners. Their funding has allowed for more than 50 athletes and 30 coaches from a range of disciplines to take part.
