#SmallButMighty #BERMUDA Plan to Emulate Iceland’s #WorldCup Run
The island has a population of a little over 65,000 but with an expanded World Cup in 2026, qualification for the tournament is not out of the question!

Bermuda, with a population of just over 65,000, will be the smallest nation outside of Oceania to ever compete in a senior men’s Confederation championship. That figure is smaller than combined capacities of the three stadiums it will play in during the group stage. Though the country has less than one-fifth the population of Iceland, Bermudan FA resident Mark Wade said he thinks the program can follow in Iceland’s footsteps and use the Gold Cup as a starting point for an eventual berth in the World Cup.

#Bermuda Mountain Biking @Sigma_Photo
I was a bit perplexed when the assignment first came through. A mountain biking shoot in Bermuda? Based as I am in the Rockies, I didn’t even know there were “mountains” in Bermuda (there’s not, really.) There are plenty of trails and more importantly a community of riders that is wildly enthusiastic about mountain biking, trail riding, and off-pavement adventures. The thought of getting to photograph bikers in an area that had probably never been shot for publication was also very enticing.
So the plan was solidified. My self and the writer, Brigid Mander, would fly to Bermuda and …

Florian Jung Windsurfing @ Horseshoe Bay Beach, Bermuda
Back in 2015 a friend put me in touch with a catamaran visiting the island with professional windsurfer Florian Jung. They were on a mission called the Aquapower Expedition to research plastic waste in the oceans and visit new places. While in Bermuda Florian and his professional photographer Pierre Bouras asked me if I could take them to some local spots for windsurfing and good photos.
Finding a good spot on that day wasn’t so easy but in the end we settled on Horseshoe beach as Pierre wanted shots with jagged volcanic shoreline in the foreground. It proved to be a tricky spot to sail with the many reefs, sloppy backwash and swirly wind off the cliff faces! I was sent out with a Garmin head camera to try and get on the water footage, which wasn’t the easiest when trying to keep up in such sloppy conditions!
In the end Pierre got his shots and it was nice for me to learn a bit about their expedition and life as a professional windsurfer.

Emirates Team New Zealand celebrate after their 7-1 victory over Oracle Team USA in the America’s Cup final CREDIT: AP
by Miles Dilworth
26 JUNE 2017 • 9:30PM
“In the end it was a walkover. New Zealand routed the USA 7-1 to win the 35th America’s Cup in Bermuda.
Trouble is, did anyone notice?
Sir Ben Ainslie’s Land Rover BAR challenge did its best to milk the untapped British market, but came up short. The Kiwis were preaching to the converted, while moneybags Oracle Team USA had their campaign end in humiliation and a dwindling American audience.
The Cup can be impenetrable at times. Adorned with corporate sponsorship, to the sceptic it is little more than a billionaire’s plaything …”

Emirates Team New Zealand won the America’s Cup by a score of 7 to 1 and will defend the Auld Mug in the 36th America’s Cup. It was Oracle’s second defense of the Cup, four years after its first successful defense.
