Former Great Britain bobsleigh driver Will Golder says he is confident he will get the time he needs to qualify and represent Jersey in the 100m at this summer’s Island Games.
Golder, 26, finished third in his first 100m race in a time of 11.76 seconds, just outside the ‘B’ standard of 11.74.
“It’s a steep learning curve and I’ll be there,” Golder told BBC Jersey.
“The way my training programme’s written I’ll be there two weeks before the games,” he added.
Golder still has to get the qualifying time, and may even have to run the Island Games ‘A’ standard of 11.40 seconds for the event which takes place in Jersey from 27 June to 3 July.
“I’ve got to qualify first, that has to be the main aim,” he said.
