The Panther’s Track club of Providenciales received a generous donation of $3,000 from Digicel to assist with the Aug. 7 meet which featured the best of Turks and Caicos Athleticism on display at the only IAAF qualifying event held in the country. The check presentation came at a time when the company and indeed the world are celebrating the excitement of Sports at the Olympic Games in London. The club which has more than 40 members provides training and mentoring for the young people who desire to perform well in various disciplines of track and field. Current World Junior Champion Delano Williams is a product of the club and is exemplary of the talent which exists and can be nurtured in the TCI to perform on the world stage. “Digicel is very proud to support the efforts of the Panthers Track Club because we believe in the work that they do in nurturing young aspiring athletes here at home, preparing them to perform and shine on the athletic stage abroad,” said Digicel’s Head of Marketing Ava-Dayne Fulford. “We have seen the product of their hard work come back with CARIFTA medals, and recently Delano Williams who came out of their camp went on to bring home gold at the World Junior Championships.”
