Zoe Gillings-Brier guest of honour for latest Sports Awards

Manx Olympic athlete the only British snowboarder to contest four Winter Games

Manx Olympic snowboarder Zoe Gillings-Brier will be the guest of honour at the latest Isle of Man Sports Awards taking place this month.

Gillings-Brier - who now runs a training academy in Austria - is the first and only British snowboarder to compete at four Winter Games.

Her best result saw her reach the final of the boarder-cross event in Vancouver, Canada in 2010.

Last year, Gillings-Brier was part of a new world record for the highest number of skiers in a torch-lit descent with 3,589 people taking part in the event at Les Arcs 1800 in France.

This year's Isle of Man Sports Awards ceremony is due to take place on Wednesday, 28 February at the Villa Marina in Douglas.

The nominees for the latest awards were confirmed last month.
