Скачать или смотреть Orkney 2025 - Men’s Shot Medal Ceremony

As with the women’s javelin, I didn’t get any footage of the competition itself, so hope that the live stream may have captured some of the action.

Evan Campbell of Jersey was the gold medallist, improving two places on his bronze medal in Guernsey two years ago.

There was a brilliant performance on his Island Games debut from Calum Elder, who won the silver medal for Orkney to the delight of the crowd.

The bronze went to multi-event athlete Rauno Liitmäe of Saaremaa. This was his fourth medal in his third Games, all four being in different disciplines – previously gold in 110m hurdles, bronze in high jump and silver in javelin.

The medals were presented by Aline Cross, one of Orkney’s finest throwers in the earlier years of the Games. She was the gold medallist in the women’s discus in 1989.
