Certain sports fraternity sidelined

Apr 15, 2010 Sports

Dear Editor,
It doesn’t come as a surprise about the not so nice report concerning the treatment that sometimes is meted out by our accomplished athletic ambassadors. I make reference to the captioned KN publication “Gold medalist Straker returns to low key welcome” and dated Sunday, April 11, 2010.
My contention is that certain sports fraternities will always be sidelined because of the lack of interest by the masses and this should never be a distraction with the focus of those athletes.
I say to them, continue with your aim and whatever minimum support comes along, be thankful and keep making yourselves proud along with the representation you make on behalf of the golden arrowhead.
Once again folks, impressive representation.
Yes, I am huge fan of many sports and will continue with my quest with writings to highlight the talents that makes representation, but I can’t make a promise to always be available in doing so. It would be fair reading to have others join and pen their contributions.
I would like to make a correction to my GT publication dated April 11, 2010. It read two medals and should be the following: Stephenson 3 medals, Straker 1 medal.
T. Pemberton
