With the 2017 Inter-Secondary Schools' Athletics Championships just around the corner, the participating schools have been vigorously preparing for the event.
From an Information Technology Services Division (ITSD), exclusive interview with last year's champions, as well as the second place finishers; this year seems set for a very closely competed one. The heats will take place on 15th and 16th March, and the finals on the 23rd.
Last year's boys' defending champions are the Saint Vincent and the Grenadines Boys' Grammar School, while the Saint Martin's Secondary School placed second. For the Girls, the Saint Vincent and the Grenadines Girls' High School are the defending champions, while they were closely followed by the Central Leeward Secondary School.
In an interview with coaches and athletes from those institutions, it can be deduced that the champions are ready to defend, and the rivals are coming with a strong challenge.
