As Jersey, Guernsey and the Isle of Man aren't technically part of the UK, what happens when people from these islands want to play in the Olympic games? Do they just play for the UK or aren't they allowed at all. I know in the commonwealth all 3 can each enter on their own, but they don't/can't in the Olympics

Actually they are not part of Great Britian which is the large island incorporating England, Wales and Scotland.

However they are part of the United Kingdom.
