TRAINING
History is made in different ways.There is good,bad and maybe indifferent. The history that we made last week was bad and we will now find a way to make it good.
In the three years that the RST&FC has been in existence, we have never cancelled a training day unless a natural disaster( hurricane,etc) prevented us. Last week we did and had no hurricane.
Some athletes and their parents may think that the postponement of training until Tuesday October 21st was too harsh but that was a decision that was made by the head coach and supported by me.
On the resumption of training and parents feel that their children should stay away,that is their call. Realise that when returning to training the child/children CANNOT restart without a doctor's certificate.
It has also been decided that instead of paying a dollar fine for not wearing the correct colour t-shirt on training day that the athlete(s) not be allowed to train or be given one(1) week's suspension.

GOOD and BAD
Congratulations to Kierre on winning a gold medal at the 2008 Commonwealth Youth Games in Pune,India. Not only did she win but she solidified the faith that was shown in her by the head coach especially.
After all the celebrations ended in India, we almost had a nerve racking tragedy which involved our head coach and other personnel from the Barbados team. Seems as though they were held for ransom while in a taxi in that country.
This only shows us that it is nice to be selecetd to be a representative of our country,but it can also be dangerous when visiting other countries where crime,violence and illiteracy are the norm.
