Can you believe its been four years since the London Olympics? It really does not seem that long ago that we were all engrossed in the sporting action. In what has been a crazy Summer for sports, we have had yet another amazing event to watch. What an event it has been with the greatest athletes on the planet going head to head in the hope of striking gold. International superstars such as Usain Bolt, Michael Phelps and Sir Bradley Wiggins have all been gracing our screens at the Rio Olympics over the last three weeks. What better way to celebrate than watching it all unfold on a big outdoor movie screen. Accompanied by friends and toasting the nations with a drink, the event was a great success. Huge cheers could be heard for the teams but none greater than for the Cayman Islands Olympic team. A spectacular firework display rounded off the celebrations and set everybody in the mood for the next three weeks. Don’t forget to get your pictures taken with the Olympic torch statue in Camana Bay. The torch will be making its appearance from 5th August until the closing ceremony on 21st August.

The third annual Cayman Airways Invitational 2016 Youth Cup took place between June 20th-25th. Local Teams such as Academy FC and Sunset FC pitted their skills against overseas competitors such as Cavalier FC from Jamaica, IFFDC from the United States and a team you may of heard of from the UK called Tottenham Hotspur. Teams battled over the course of six days to win the competition. The eventual winners Cavalier FC conquered Tottenham in the final 2-0. Over the course of the week, we were witness to some excellent teams, and some quality and skillful individuals. I’m extremely excited to look forward to next years competition to see which teams take on the challenge of the Cayman Airways Invitational 2017 Youth Cup.

Each year the competition gets larger and draws even more top class teams. This year saw Manchester City FC, LA Galaxy, and the Seattle Sounders FC arrive to showcase their skills and footballing prowess. Manchester City were the eventual winners dominating the competition with a victory over the Cuban National Team in the final.

Ranging from 6 years up to 14 these kids sure know how to skate. Kings Sports Centre do an amazing job teaching the children the game in training sessions and setting up and playing leagues. I had great fun taking the Picture This Studio down to the sports centre to capture these cool portraits for this roller hockey shoot.
