Howard University Swim Team In Bermuda
“On behalf of the Government, I extend gratitude to Howard University for choosing Bermuda again as their training ground and connecting with our Bermuda Public School students,” said Minister of Tourism, Culture, and Sport Owen Darrell.
“I want to thank Myeisha Sharrieff, a Bermudian member of the Howard University Swim and Dive Team, and several Bermudian alumni who hosted a dinner, building connections and creating lasting memories for all.”
The Government spokesperson said, “Between December 29th, 2023, and January 6th, 2024, the National Sports Centre swimming pool served as a training ground for the visiting team. While on the island, they visited the West Pembroke Primary School, Whitney Institute Middle School, Harrington Sound Primary School, the Berkeley Institute and CedarBridge Academy.”
The Minister of Education Diallo Rabain shared, “The Howard University Swim and Dive Team’s visit has been an invaluable experience for our Bermuda Public School students. Witnessing such a dedicated and accomplished team, especially as the only all-Black collegiate swimming and diving team in the United States, sends a powerful message of representation and excellence. We thank Howard University for inspiring our students and showcasing the possibilities within aquatic sports.”
The Director of the Department of Sport and Recreation Kimberley Charryse Bean shared, “The Howard University Swim and Dive Team’s visit has been a testament to the power of sports in fostering camaraderie and skill development. Witnessing their passion and discipline at the National Sports Centre has been motivating. We hope their time in Bermuda has contributed to their athletic growth and left a lasting impression on our island’s sporting community.”
How much did that cost the taxpayers. What a racist government bda has.
The last time everyone who voted checked the only racist government was the UBP/OBA as they continue to use blacks as surrogates with the hopes of winning more votes. Same play style every year and every election. The OBA’s new slogan is the same old slogan look at us we’re so diverse. Three former UBP/OBA leaders Craig Jet Gate Cannonier, Michael Dunkley and Jeanne Atherden didn’t even support SSM but they get the white ticket pass. If anyone really believes Jarion will help the Opposition win again I really hope you can hold your breath for 20 plus years.
“the UBP/OBA”
The UBP was dissolved more than a decade ago. You are living in the past.
Remember their bloggers constantly say the ubp is not the oba LOL. Also that the majority of voters are racist, wrong and don’t like gays.
That’s true.
The majority of the electorate are Homophobic, racist and xenophobic…most of them don’t know what the big words mean, so they deny it, and then spew their homophobia, racism and xenophobia…while denying it.
LMFAO…a true product of Bermudas educational system.
Good of you to come clean and admit to it as well!
No.
The bigots running the country into the ground are the plp.
Your government has gone out of its way, spending money it doesn’t have, to discriminate against a few gay people.
The rest of the world can see this, and recognize your racism, homophobia and xenophobia.
You have no tourists, and IB is tired of your threats and out right bigotry.
You’re failing miserable, but would rather suffer in poverty than admit that you’re a bigot.
We don’t like diversity in Bermuda…or gay people.
But, everyone just want to visit us…we’re so great, our new airport is overflowing.
