Gold-candidate 2 The Gotland Men Basket Team had some problems with Cayman Islands, but sorted it out and won 86 - 75. |
|
Gold-candidate 3 The Gotland football team, here winning the game against Hitra at Gutavallen, 12-1 |

Gold-candidate 4 Is there a smell of Gold for Gotland in the Volleyball tournament too? Certainly for the Gotland Men's Team. Maybe we can hope for a medal for the Gotland woman team, here beating Gibraltar. Favourites in volleyball for women are Saarema and Faroe Islands. The Volleyball-stadium in the Visby Ice-hall(!) is certainly one of the hottest places in the Games. It is boiling with cheering and screaming supporters. Go there if you have a chance! |
