Taylor, Bromfield head Carifta Games squad

An 82-strong squad has been named to represent the island at the 2017 staging of the Carifta Games, which is scheduled to take place at the Ergilio Hato Stadium, Willemstad, Curacao from April 15-17.

The 22-member boys' Under-20 squad is headed by Calabar High's Christopher Taylor, who won the 400 metres at the trials in a national leading time of 45.41 seconds.

Taylor is stepping up to the senior-age group for the first as he won the Under-18 one-lap event a year ago in Grenada. Taylor is joined in this age group by Kingston College's Jhevaughn Matherson, who won the Under-20 100 metres at the Trials in 10.25 seconds.

World Under-20 400m silver medallist Junelle Bromfield will lead a strong senior girls team. Now a student at the University of Technology, she won the one-lap race in an impressive 52.75 at the trials.
