Team-mates remember Mark Madsen-Mygdal as they win Isle of Man Business League

Victory for the RBS International football team in the Isle of Man Business League was filled with poignancy as the winning players remembered a former team-mate.

As they celebrated their triumph at finals night, the team members displayed a T-shirt with 27 MMM written on it, in memory of Mark Madsen-Mygdal.

Mark, 23, was a colleague and team member who tragically lost his life after a crash when he was leading the 600cc race at the Southern 100 in July 2013.

He race number was 27.

A team spokesman said: ‘Mark was a much-loved friend and colleague at the bank.

‘Mark played in every tournament we entered from 2011 up until he died. His enthusiasm for the business league means he is never far from our thoughts when we play in the tournament.’

The business league featured two groups, with the top four in each proceeding to a knockout competition. The RBS International team won its group before emerging victorious from the finals night, beating Newfield A 4-3 on penalties in the final, after a 0-0 deadlock after extra time.
