Too bad we will never be able to hold Carifta here and watch our athletes perform on home turf due to design flaws at the new aquatics centre at National Sports Centre??

And how much is this flawed pool going to cost us??

You are phenomenal. What a achievement for you both. Bermuda should be so proud of their fine young swimmers, and take a long hard look @ our future generation.
12 year olds aiming so high in their sport is beyond expectation (and in these times belief) and must be commended. Your dedication and passion to your sport reflects.
This is just the beginning. Bermuda take note.

You have a point there. Or perhaps we should invest in our youth athletic programmes, including cricket & football, to bring our young athletes up to the world standard.

After attending the Kappa football tournament, I’m sure many of our young football players possess the passion and discipline required to compete successfully in international competition. I would assume (hopefully correctly) that the same could be said for our young cricket players. Let’s invest in our youth for a better tomorrow and let the undisciplined adult players fund their own efforts.

Well done. It seems as if athlethics is where Gov’t should be investing funds and not cricket and football.
