Director of Sports on Nevis, Mr. Jamir Claxton has indicated that the Department of Sports will be launching the AFA (Athletics for Future Academics) program in a few weeks.
According to Claxton: ‘This program is designed to develop our elite youth athletes in all facets with a heavy focus on their technical & tactical and academic development. The main goal is to put our young sports men and women in the best position to get opportunities to study abroad through athletic scholarships.’
With that in mind, the Department is seeking volunteer tutors for its academic support program. Interested persons can contact the Department of Sports via email: dept.sports@niagov.com.
