At the 3rd Annual Student/Athletes Awards Ceremony, held Thursday evening at Bible Believers Sanctuary in Clare Hall, nominees in 10 sporting disciplines received their awards before the announcement of the Top Male and Female Student/Athletes.
The Acting Minister of Education, Sports, Youth and Gender Affairs, Senator Winston Williams, congratulated the young scholar athletes and charged them to ‘go the distance’ not only in their athletic but academic careers.
