Cycling saddles up in the schools

The thrust by the St Vincent and the Grenadines Cycling Union to have the sport as part of the schools’ programme, is saddling up, with the second phase of a six-month grassroots activity.{{more}}

Irish coach Chris Killmurray, is back for another two weeks, following his initial laying down of the programme, last December.

Taking the lead in the development thrust are the Fair Hall Government School, the Central Leeward Secondary School and the Emmanuel High School Mesopotamia.

In all, ten schools have been targetted.

The course facilitator – Killmurray is no stranger to St Vincent and the Grenadines as he conducted a level one course here last July.

Sponsored to the tune of $30 000.00, by Olympic Solidarity, through the National Olympic Committee here, the sum takes care of Killmurray’s travel , accommodation and meals.

Killmurray, following his current trip, will return later to wrap up the programme. (RT)
