Athletics-Grand rendez-vous set for next year |24 April 2012

It was the Athletics director at the International School of Kenya (ISK) Derrick Quinet who had the honour of doing the closing remarks to officially end the event, in the presence of the Minister responsible for Sports Vincent Meriton.

Mr Quinet said the event should be held annually and the ISK will ensure its participation each time. He congratulated all the athletes who took part in the competition whom he described as full of energy, enthusiasm and sportsmanship.

He thanked the sponsors and all those involved in organising the competition, as well as the Seychellois people, for the warm welcome received.

Mr Quinet ended with words of luck for the local athletes who will be taking part in the National Schools Championships in June.

All the teams who took part then received certificates of participation from Mr Meriton.
Jointly organised by the Seychelles Athletics Federation (SAF), local telecommunications company Airtel, the Ministry of Education and the National Sports Council (NSC), the event gathered over 400 athletes from seven best performing secondary schools during the 2011 National Schools Athletics Championship – Praslin, Anse Royale, English River, Plaisance, La Digue, Pointe Larue and Beau Vallon – alongside 27 athletes from the International School of Kenya.

The technical aspects of the competition were taken care of by the local athletics body, while the athletes competed in the under-14, under-16, under-18 and under-20 groups.

The ‘Seychelles Track & Field Schools Invitational Meet’ was initiated following an agreement between the Ministry of Education and the ministry responsible for sports for a better coordinated and monitored school sports system which will ensure the development of the children and young people of the country through the “Physical Education and School Sports” (PESS) Strategy.
