Solomon Islands competed in the 2011 Commonwealth Youth Games held in the British Crown Dependency of Isle of Man from 7 to 13 September 2011. Their participation marked their third Commonwealth Youth Games appearance.[1][2] The Solomon Islands delegation consisted of three athletes (one woman and two men) who competed in four events in two different sports.[3] This was a decrease in the number of participating athletes from the nation's last appearance at the Games when seven athletes were sent to Pune.[4]
Cliff Wale was the sole medalist from Solomon Islands, winning a bronze medal in the bantamweight category of boxing after reaching the semifinal, which he lost to Qais Ashfaq of England. This was the first medal for Solomon Islands in the history of the Games.[5] Solomon Islands, ranked at 22nd, was last in the medal table, a position shared with nine other Commonwealth Games Associations.[6]
