The 10th Micronesian Games were held in Majuro, Marshall Islands. After initially being scheduled for July 25 to August 5, 2022, the competition was originally delayed a year because of challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, including finishing construction of the new Marshall Islands stadium. The games were held June 15-24, 2024.
History The Marshall Islands were announced as tournament hosts in July 2018. This marked the first time that the Marshall Islands hosted the Micronesian Games. The Marshall Islands received unanimous support after the Northern Mariana Islands withdrew their bid to host.
The Marshall Islands Soccer Federation had indicated that the nation may field its first-ever national soccer team at the games. However, in March 2023 MISF President Shev Livai stated that football would not be part of the tournament. The federation investigated the possibility of adding football to the schedule but hotels on the islands were already fully booked.
In March 2023 it was announced that the tournament would again be delayed for an indefinite amount of time. The delay was necessary because of the construction progress of the stadium and sports arena. Progress was slowed by supply chain and worker shortages caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and Asia Pacific Airlines, the sole cargo carrier for the Marshall Islands, being grounded by the US Federal Aviation Administration since 1 February 2023. A Radio New Zealand contributor indicated that the tournament may now be held in April 2024. In May 2023 it was announced that the tournament dates had been officially set for 15-24 June 2024.
