Sports Minister Commends CARIFTA Team
The Minister of Community and Cultural Development Wayne Scott said he would like to commend the Bermuda CARIFTA team and officials as they head to the 2013 Lime CARIFTA Games in the Bahamas and the CARFITA Swimming Championships in Kingston, Jamaica from March 30 – April 2nd.
“Bermuda’s athletes performed wonderfully at the 2012 CARIFTA Games in front of the home crowd but I am hoping our team will rekindle that spirit in the Bahamas and Jamaica and reach new heights of success,” Minister Scott said.
He added: “We have assembled a super team of young men and women who are more than capable of rising to the occasion and demonstrating once again Bermuda has what it takes to be an exceptional leader in sports.”
Minister Scott and Director of Youth Sport & Recreation Mr. Norbert Simons will be attending the CARIFTA Games in the Bahamas for the track and field events and the Swimming Championships in Jamaica. They will be among our local supporters cheering on the Bermuda team as they contend to be among the medal winners.
