Triathlon was dropped from the program at the 2005 Island Games in Shetland, Scotland, so Haveland competed in two cycling events. In the men's individual time trial he finished in 20th in 1:03:04.6 [7] and with Julian Bellido and Christopher Walker finished 6th in men's team time trial.

[10] Haveland was also due to compete in the men's individual triathlon but pulled out. [11]

In the team event however, Haveland alongside Edgar Harper, Christopher Walker and Kevin Walsh finished 6th. [12]

At the 2013 Island Games in Bermuda, Haveland finished in 31st place the men's individual time trial with a time of 1:08:11.088 and alongside Mark Francis, Robert Matto, Sean Randall and Christopher Walker finished 7th in the men's time trial team award in 3:22:50.817. [13] The 2013 Games also saw Haveland complete in the triathlon where he finished in 26th place in the individual event with a time 2:15:15 and won gold in the team event with Derek Barbara, Mark Francis, Mark Garcia, Andrew Gordon, Edgar Harper, Robert Matto, Richard Muscat, Sean Randall and Christopher Walker.
