  Triathlon was dropped from the program at the 2005 Island Games in Shetland, Scotland, so Haveland competed in two cycling events.

The following month at the 2007 Island Games in Rhodes, Greece, Walker competed in the men's individual town centre criterium and in the men's individual time trial where he finished 35th in 58:40. Haveland was also due to compete in the men's individual triathlon but pulled out.
  
  In the team event however, Haveland alongside Edgar Harper, Christopher Walker and Kevin Walsh finished 6th.
