Following its awareness walkathon, which was held this past Saturday, Special Olympics Bahamas has made a decision, in line with what is happening with sporting events in the country, in general, to postpone specific items on its calendar of events until further notice. This includes all sports training activities with immediate effect. “This is in keeping with precautionary measures being implemented by various government ministries, local sports federations and associations, and sporting bodies, as well as safety protocols being followed by many Olympic programs globally,” said Special Olympics Bahamas National Director Gilbert Williams. “We join the various authorities in encouraging each individual to follow all of the recommended safety measures/guidelines that have been designed to minimize the spread of the virus and keep us all safe. We will continue to monitor the situation and will advise once a decision has been made to resume our regular training. Thank you all for your support.”
