WOW!!! Congratulations to our team members. The Bahamas is really becoming a force to reckon with on the tracks. Small and mighty!

That's great! Boy we are, indeed a force in track and field. We have a deep and strong stable of runners, especially in the 400 meters. With the new kid Alonzo Russell, and a time so close tto England, who won the race, speaks volume as to the strength of our athletes. If Ramon Miller was healthy, and in that race, we certainly would have won the gold. Good job guys!!!

I think the team did good. It always puzzles me as to how much better the Jamaicans perform than our own when we have more resources. The government needs to invest more in its people because at one time they believed in Bahamians now they seem to only believe in the Bahamas.....meaning its physical land.
