Message fromThe Governor General

Good evening scholar athletes, parents, teachers, coaches, familyand friends, corporate and individual sponsors, members of TheBahamas Association of Athletic Associations, ladies and gentle-men.

The success the Bahamian Track and Field teams around theworld has made Bahamians, residents, and me extremely proudthis year. It is indeed a singular opportunity for me to be hereon this occasion to congratulate those Track and Field athleteswho have conquered the world as well as their lessons.

In order for a student athlete to succeed it is most importantfor them to have good coaching, the brawn as well as the brain.Balance is most important.

I am happy that we have a significant increase of persons who made the scholar athlete listthis year. It demonstrates that the program has had an effect in encouraging our athletes toimprove on their scholastics.

It is indeed quite important that we publicize these scholar athletes. Of the over twelve hundredstudents who participated in the Scotiabank National High School Track and Field Champi-onships, only nineteen (14 males & 5 females) have met the athletic criteria set by the Federationand have made the minimum grade point average of 2.50 to qualify as All Bahamian ScholarAthletes. This has improved from 12 last year more than a fifty percent improvement, whichis certainly encouraging.

Please allow me to congratulate those World Junior and Youth Champions amongst you, Shau-nae Miller, Latario Collie - Minns and Stephen Newbold.

Each of you has stuck to your books while honing your craft.

In noting that there are numerous former athletes who have excelled in their professions afterputting down their spikes, I must note that the project manager of the new Thomas RobinsonNational Stadium was Architect Iram Lewis, a former national sprinter.

But I wish to say to all of the honorees, you are yet in the early stages of your athletic careers.Some of you have graduated this year and others will in 2012. More than likely the majority ofyou have been approached or have already been granted athletic scholarships to colleges anduniversities in the United States. You will only be able to continue your athletic careers if youmaintain the academic requirements of the institutions who have high expectations of you. Iam certain some of you are aware of former students who lost opportunities to receive highereducation because of poor academic performances having been dismissed from the schoolsand returned home. The Bahamas is in need of bright, technically sound Bahamians to returnand contribute to national development in many areas.

I urge each and every one of you to continue your quest for success in all areas of life.

H.E. Sir Arthur Foulkes

Message fromThe Minister of Education

I extend heartfelt congratulations to the nineteen young menand women who have been dubbed, our “All Bahamian ScholarAthletes.” You are shining examples for your peers of whatcan be accomplished if one is willing to work diligently and topersevere, despite distractions. I therefore, am happy to sup-port any initiative that rewards you for your positive contribu-tions to our society.

Nineteen of you are being recognized at this Athletes’ AwardsReception for having met a minimum academic standard ofa 2.50 grade point average (GPA), and having excelled as jun-ior track athletes. This is no easy feat. You applied yourselvesand found a way to rise to the challenge, which is most

commendable.

It is wonderful to note that our athlete awardees hail not only from New Providence, but at-tend schools from Abaco, Eleuthera, Grand Bahama and the United States as well. Thisdemonstrates that we are a people who are full of untapped potential and that we have theability to compete and to meet the highest world standards in track and field.

I applaud the Bahamas Association of Athletic Associations for their untiring dedication inthe development of our youth and sports in The Bahamas. It is encouraging to know that asour more senior athletes leave the scene that we have a crop of strong, focused and intelligentjunior athletes to whom they are able to pass to the baton and who are quite capable of takingthe sport and our nation to the next level.

Awardees, I am proud of you your many accomplishments. I thank, your parents and coachesalso, whose continuous support of your dreams played an important role in helping you tofind success. My wish, awardees, is that you always give your best effort in all your endeavours,and that you continue to find a balance between your academic studies and athletic pursuits.If you remember to transfer the discipline that you have developed to other areas of yourlives you can only meet with more success in the future.

Congratulations once again, and best wishes for the future.

The Honourable T. Desmond Bannister, M.P.

Message fromThe President of

The Bahamas Association of Athletic Associations

Within the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA),the governing body of Collegiate Athletics in the United States,the terms “student” and “athlete” are synonymous. This is be-cause the NCAA recognizes that an overwhelming majority ofstudent-athletes will never earn a living as professional athletes.It is also recognized that when the athlete can no longer com-pete, the student can still succeed. Hence great emphasis isplaced on maintaining a minimum grade point average (GPA).

The Bahamas Association of Athletic Associations (BAAA)fully subscribes to this philosophy. That is why the All Ba-hamian Scholar Award has become a yearly fixture on ourcalendar.

Members of our coaching fraternity recognizing the need to create a ‘balancing act’ betweenacademics and athletics recommended the formation of the Parents Association of Trackand Field with the express purpose of bridging the gap between the academic and athleticperformance so as to ensure that our athletes meet the requirements to further their educationthrough sports and in particular Track and Field.

The success of the program is well documented with more than $20million in scholarshipsbeing awarded to our student-athletes over the past decade. If this trend is to continue, as Iexpect it would, it is imperative that we, the Administrators of our beloved sport continueto encourage and reward those student-athletes for their performances in the classroom. TheParents Association is to be congratulated for their efforts in maintaining this vision.

This evening, it gives me great pleasure to recognize and congratulate those student-athleteswho along with their athletic achievements have also achieved the minimum requirement ofa 2.50GPA thus allowing you to be recognized as an All Bahamian Scholar Athlete.

Your accomplishment is a testament to your Discipline, Dedication, Determination and De-sire to achieve great things for yourselves. It is also a testament to the support that you havereceived from your coaches, family members and friends. All of whom are no doubt asequally proud as those of us in the BAAA family.

Best wishes for success in all your future endeavours.

Mike Sands

Honourary All Bahamian Scholar RecipientMRS. EUGENIA GREEN-ELLIS

I am grateful for being selected as one of this year’s HonoraryAll Bahamian Scholar Athletes. My track career started at OakesField Primary School and continued as I moved to H.O. NashJunior High School. It was at that time when my Social StudiesTeacher, Mr. Wayne Symonette (deceased) and my Physical Ed-ucation Teachers Ms. Gloria Gomez and Ms. Linda Knowlesnoticed my potentials. I attended Government High Schooland after graduation, I was even more determined to pursue atrack career; I then began training with Coaches Walter Cal-endar (deceased), Ronald Cartwright and Frank (Pancho) Rah-ming, of the Pioneers Track Club. I thank my Coaches for thetraining and guidance they had given me during my short butvery successful career.

During my stint as a track athlete, I made several national teams, including Carifta 1976 whichwas held here in The Bahamas for the first time; where I ran the 400m and got the silvermedal. Again in 1976, I represented the Bahamas at the Junior CAC Games held in Mexicoand won a gold medal in the 400m. With these major successes my career began to blossom.In 1977 once again I represented the Bahamas on the Carifta Team, this time in Barbados;however disappointingly my athletic career was abruptly halted due to injuries.

Determined not to allow injuries to deter my athletic goals, I furthered my knowledge bystudying fitness at a fitness institute in Florida; this would allow me to still work with athletes.I continued my education by studying Massage Therapy at the Thalasso Institute and RussianSport Science of Massage in Fort Meyers, Florida where I received a Certificate in MassageTherapy. I massage the majority of the now junior athletes that do well in track and field in-cluding my two children who are active participants in the sport. I truly enjoy my profession,and it makes me extremely happy to be able to give back to the future Olympians of thiscountry.

Proposed ProgramBy: Corrington maycock

March 2011

no Kids left Behind

In the past we have seen potential super stars surface in the eyes of Track & Field at the primary

and junior school level. After the High School Championships and Primary School Champi-

onships these student athletes vanish never to be seen or heard from again. Very few remain in

the system and later excel to make junior international teams or establish a scholarship to univer-

sity or college.

No Kids Left Behind was designed to recognize and locate student athletes in Track & Field with

inner city backgrounds to help further their career. Concentration will be placed on athletes

under the age of 16 that needs to be directed in the hope of sustaining yearly competition and

training. We want to eliminate student athletes not knowing their talent and how much better

they can become with such an opportunity.

We hope to enter into schools during physical education classes, at house meets and at champi-

onship meets to scout potential athletes. After evaluation, names will be placed in categories for

specialty events and club placement. Only registered clubs of the Bahamas Association of Athletic

Association will receive names of athletes and their specialty.

All potential student athletes will receive a certified letter from the B.A.A.A’s. This letter will be

addressed to the parent(s) or guardian of the student breaking down their child’s ability and the

details of this program. We will urge parents to make it possible no matter what to have their stu-

dent athlete register and remain in the program.

We will also go into their school and speak to teachers and guidance counselors for a history on

the individual. We will then determine what needs to be done to keep this individual in our sys-

tem and make it possible to have them succeed on the track and in the classroom.

A program of this magnitude must be financed by a corporate sponsor or funded through a Gov-

ernment Grant. We do not have a school system like Jamaica or other top Caribbean countries

that develop athletes in their program. We run a club system that does well but can do 100% bet-

ter through numbers and talent. Having numbers will introduce a better pooling system for inter-

national teams at the junior level and more professional athletes in the near future. We will also

better the lives of many more kids through scholarship opportunities.

We have a team in place who is willing to make this happen and clubs willing to benefit through

this recognition and development program. We need the financial means to get started and save

many young talented athletic individuals in our Bahamas.

Why All Bahamian

In 2007, Kermit Taylor, then Public relations director of the Bahamas Association of Athletic Associations assembled a PRcommittee in order to make more versatile, the office that heheld. To make this idea possible, he emphasized marketing andplanning and two key ingredients. Seven professionals were thencontacted, Ms Susan Glinton, Mr. Harrison Petty, Mr.Ainsworth Beckford, Mr. Patrick Roberts, Mr. Ed Jimenez, Mr.Roosevelt Thompson and Dr. Dwight Marshall.

One of the things that came out of these committee meetingswas the need for this group to establish a signature event thatwould highlight our junior athletes. Furthermore, this awardwould be based not just on athletics, but more importantlytheir academic accomplishments as well. During this period there was aresurgence of our junior athletes on the regional as well as international stages, which madethis project even more relevant.

In one particular meeting, Dr. Dwight Marshall suggested that the event should be modeledafter the All-American Award which was already in existence. The difference however, wouldbe the inclusion of academics as an integral part of the overall criteria. The matter was dis-cussed, and it was decided that the All-Bahamian Award would be that signature event.

Once it was established, standards were discussed which would then lead to the selection onthe first ever All-Bahamian inductees. After much debate, it was decided that athletics alonewould identify the first class, with both athletics and academics deciding future recipients.

The committee also realized that this award also afforded us the opportunity to identify pastlegends of track and field as honorary All-Bahamians, a very important and necessary featureof this event. The first honorary recipients were Ms Maryann Higgs and Mr. Rudy Levarity.The next question surrounded the venue that an even such as this should be held. The com-mittee then also agreed that any venue recommended for consideration should be one whichadds an additional degree of prestige to the event. Mr. Roosevelt Thompson then recom-mended that and event of this importance should only take place at the Government Housewhich is synonymous with honour and prestige in this country.

In this its fourth year, the All-Bahamian Award continues to be the signature award for juniortrack and field athletes in this country. In this short period since its inception, our junior ath-letes have ascended to great heights in track and field with the potential of going even higherin the years to come. This All-Bahamian Award was created to identify and celebrate theseathletes, who are the toast of the world, but who are also our little darlings, our little heroes,our All- Bahamians.
