T&T’s World Championships gold and silver medallist Jereem Richards returned to the southlands this past weekend to deliver the feature address at ASJA Boys’ College in San Fernando. It’s where he studied CAPE before heading off to Alabama State University. He described his journey from a little boy idolising Ato Boldon to winning a gold medal on one of track and field’s biggest stages. His success spoke loudly this summer, but his struggles were silent.

Trinidad and Tobago’s Roger Daniel said winning the 10-metre Air Pistol Competition at the Central American and Caribbean qualifiers in El Salvador earlier this week, has boosted his confidence as he continues preparations for the CAC Games and more immediately, the Commonwealth Games on Australia’s Gold Coast next April.
