Impressively, he became one of the youngest Deputy Sector Marshals at just 18, having started marshaling at 16. But Darryl isn’t just about bikes and flags – he’s also one of the best snooker players the Isle of Man has ever seen, recently nominated alongside Dollin Mercer for the Sports Team of the Year award at the IOM Sports Awards. Oh, and did we mention he manages the Mann Cat Sanctuary? Talk about multitasking! Take a look at this video showing you behind the scenes at Jurby.
