Cricket's Manx Premier League is to be expanded.
Introduced last season, it will be played over five weekends spread over the summer.
There will also be an MPL Saturday with three games going ahead at a single venue.
Three squads of sixteen players will compete in coloured clothing with a pink ball being used.
Managers will be given a theoretical ?100,000 to purchase players - for example Luke Lacey, Ollie Webster and Greg Hawke have been valued at ?10,000 each.
Full details and player prices are available on the Isle of Man Cricket Association website.
Researching your Manx family history can be a very interesting and rewarding hobby. Trace your roots in the Isle of Man with our helpful of guide.
