Youth national team off to Sweden

Machine-translated from Faroese and not yet reviewed. Read the original.

While the Island Games team is busy with its final events, our youth national team has gone to Gothenburg to compete at VU-Spelen. This is the sixth year in a row, and the eighth time in all, that the youth national team has gone to VU-Spelen. Although some athletes are, for good reasons, in Jersey, this is still the largest group to have travelled so far.
