2010 Micronesian Games
The 7th Micronesian Games was held August 1–10 in Palau.
Initially, the 7th Games were to be hosted in Majuro, Marshall Islands; however, in April 2008, the organisers announced that the Games could be "scaled down", with a number events cancelled due to a lack of facilities in Majuro. In May 2008, the Marshall Islands announced that it was withdrawing from hosting the competition. The hosting of the Games was subsequently awarded to Palau., which previously hosted the 1998 Games.
