Head coach Mark Scott of the 2026 Junior Caribbean Free Trade Association (CARIFTA) team spoke with Guyana Times Sport about the intense preparations underway for the upcoming CARIFTA Games during the Easter weekend.
“We have about eight coaches from Guyana, and we have four from overseas that are working along with the team.
More so on the more technical part with the relays, the 4×1 especially, and they are looking at, like, block starts, you know, how athletes are coming out of the blocks and those kinds of things.”
Additionally, Scott outlined the objective of the mini-competition taking place on Saturday, calling it “CARIFTA versus the rest”.
“On Saturday we have a mini competition to see really CARIFTA versus the rest, the CARIFTA team versus the rest that will be done on Saturday, but just the events that are being done at CARIFTA we’re doing,” he explained.
The team will depart for Grenada on April 2, ready for the Easter weekend event.
