Wow, this at least deserves some notice. Scotiabank deserves some praise. Wow
Here's wishing these prospective robotics experts all the BEST in their upcoming competition.

Miss Hamy thanks for drawing that story to attention. I remember the little warrior. Who forget him?
When I see and hera people criticize people like Ottey and others who went out and did what they have done for the little rock I wonder how much they know.
One of my sisters was a very promising track star. She had to forget that! I remember my mom questioning what was really taking place after she went to her first real event and we told our mom what had happened. It was a regional Final between youth clubs making up parish teams in St Mary, St Thomas and Portland. Sis was the unknown going up against a young Jackie Pusey. We knew sis was not easily intimidated so we knew what to expect. People my sister ran away leaving a clear stretch in front of Pusey. So Ms Pusey holler down the place and make all sorts of excuses. Next thing we know "the race have to run over" and it was made clear that if Pusey lost it would be "run over "until she won. We thanked God mom was not there for trust me, when I say all hell would break loose.
Very few people can really appreciate what these athletes have to endure. As to scholarships? Ha don't even mention that. Nobody tells you waht you really get. When sis was offered one mom smelled the rat and say no way-keep it. Many schoolboy/girl athletes bend seriously under the pressure of being on those scholarships. The half is yet to be told. England should be commended seriously.
As to the JAAA? Some of those in charge should be put in jail.
