The team, led by Bowles who flies for the islands’ air service, will head to Guernsey for next month’s Island Games via a training camp in West Sussex and Surrey.
Each Falklands-based player is contributing £400 towards the trip, with sponsors and donations making up most of the rest of the cost, along with government grants.
The overall Falklands team will be 73-strong and is expected to be competitive in basketball, archery, shooting, swimming and cycling while Bowles himself has previously competed – and won medals in –golf as well as playing for the football team.
Now Bowles is preparing for a stern test against Ynys Mon, the Shetland Islands and the Isle of Man in Group B from July 9.
