"Over the weekend, I met with quite a number of the presidents, and all of them are excited to come and are looking forward to it," Penn said. "I think we are going to have a very good meet. By having all these international athletes coming in to compete and having our international athletes coming in to compete against them, we will showcase track and field and also showcase our athletes competing with the best in the OECS." With the exception of Anguilla, Secretary General Stephanie Russ Penn said, all the OECS countries - Grenada, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, St. Lucia, Dominica, Antigua and St. Kitts and Nevis - have confirmed their participation. Penn said each team will comprise 17 athletes and up to four officials. "We're looking forward to an exciting competition," she said. "It was pretty exciting last time. If it is as exciting this time or more exciting, definitely it will be a great success." Events will include the 4 x 100, 4 x 200, sprint medley, distance medley and Swedish medley relays. Individual events will include the 100 and 800 meters, long jump, shot put and discus throw. |
