Sports Minister Declares: 'Our Every Endeavor Shines Like Gold'

“I believe every endeavor we pursue in sports development turns to gold,” expressed Kenson Casimir, Saint Lucia's Minister for Youth Development and Sports, as he lauded the nation’s exceptional feats at the Carifta Games. Sixteen-year-old Jady Emmanuel made history as the first double sprint champion. Competing for Choiseul Secondary, she triumphed in both the Under-17 girls’ 100m and 200m in Trinidad and Tobago, setting remarkable new records. The nation's overall sixth-place finish included medals from Naya Jules and Destinee Cenac, underscoring the government's commitment to promoting athletic excellence.
