Deon Lendore died tragically, short weeks after he had represented our country in the quarter at the Olympics in Tokyo.

Former champion Curtis Cox is among a select group of runners expected to compete in tomorrow’s Trinidad and Tobago International Marathon (TTIM) 40th Edition.

Brian Lewis, Trinidad and Tobago Olympic Committee (TTOC) president, is ready to conquer the challenging 26.2 mile marathon walk for an eighth consecutive time.

Though the government’s return-to-sport safe-zone initiative has been received with welcoming arms by all sports and their organisations, the responsibility of this being carried out effectively has now been placed in the hands of the National Governing Bodies (NGBs) for each sporting discipline and all of the other stakeholders.

MINISTER of Sport and Community Development Shamfa Cudjoe said on Monday that fete matches will not be allowed during the first phase of the Ministry's safe zone return to play proposal.

It will be the end for fete-match teams that organise and play matches without the government's approval, and for those who play football and others sports in numbers exceeding five.
