GOOD NEWS FOR NETBALL IN BARBADOS
Kudos are in order for Mr. Julian Annel, A sports tour operator in Barbados, for being instrumental in arranging a scholarship for two of Barbados former Under 16 national netballers- MAKEBA CLARKE AND JEHLESAL BRATHWAITHE at ST. Bedes school in Sussex ,England .
Mr. Annel, organised the scholarship for the young ladies, building on the reputation held by the BNA in terms of English schools making visits to Barbados. This work would have been spear headed by the former president- Ms. Annette Beckett- and she was elated that Mr. Annel has been able to take the partnership to the stage of getting a scholarship.
Its going to cost about US 75.000.00 to ensure that all the expenses are covered, but Mr. Annel has already made contact with the Barbados Government and the Barbados Olympic Assocaition,as well as members of the corporate community in Barbados, so he feels confident that all the costs will be met.
Current President of the BNA. Ocatvia Gibson thinks its a good thing for the sport and is pleased that these netballers will get exposure to netball at a different level.
WELL DONE MR. ANNEL AND VISITORS TO THIS BLOG AWAIT A WORD FROM YOU AS TO HOW WE CAN ASSIST TO ENSURE THAT ALL THE YOUNGSTERS EXPENSES ARE MET.
WE ALSO ARE WAITING TO HEAR FROM THE BARBADOS NETBALL ASSOCAITION IN TERMS OF FUNDRAISING TO ASSIST AND WE WILL BE PLEASED TO BE PART OF THIER DRIVE AS WELL.
The sport of Netball is great..lets write about it and ensure it takes its rightful place on the world map. Right here you can also have your say on any and everything. Politics impacts on our lives whether we like it or not, so have your say, maybe you can influence someone.
