Bermuda’s Team For Island Games To Depart
Bermuda’s team to represent the island at the NatWest Island Games departs for Gotland on Thursday.
Many of Bermuda’s top athletes are involved in the Games and the Chef de Mission, Jon Beard, believes that this group of athletes will continue the success and reputation that Bermuda enjoys in the Games.
Mr Beard expressed his praise of the hard work completed by his committee of: Juanita Blee, Georgina Francoeur, and Laura Bolton.
He and the national sports governing bodies involved , wish to express their thanks to companies and organizations who have supported Team Bermuda, saying that without their support many of these athletes would not be able to participate. The team has been outfitted thanks to the continued support of Sun Life Financial International, who has provided the team’s uniforms since 2015.
Niall O’Hare, CEO of Sun Life Financial International, shared, “We are pleased to continue our support of the Bermudian delegation for the NatWest Island Games. We are proud to support our local community and look forward to celebrating the athletes and their successes upon their return to Bermuda.”
Beard emphasized that, “representing Bermuda is an honour that our athletes do not take lightly, and the uniforms provided by SLF International ensure that they represent us in style”.

I certainly think we can medal in some events!
I had to google Gotland.
It does seem pretty out-of-the-way. Then again many people wouldn’t be able to find Aland or Ynes Mon on a map either.
