2009 UWI Games
The St Augustine Campus will host the 2009 UWI Games. The University’s biennial student games, which are rotated among the three main UWI campuses, will return to Trinidad next month. This year’s UWI Games will be formally opened by Deputy Principal Professor Rhoda Reddock in an official ceremony on Tuesday 21st May, 2009.
Over 400 athletes from the three main campuses at St Augustine, Mona (Jamaica) and Cave Hill (Barbados) are expected to take part in this year’s Games, which will include track and field, football, netball, cricket, volleyball, basketball, 6-a-side hockey, swimming, table tennis and lawn tennis, culminating in a festive Closing Ceremony on Thursday 28th May, 2009.
Most of the sporting activities will be held at the UWI St Augustine Sport and Physical Education Centre (SPEC). With 34,000-plus square feet of indoor space, seating capacity for 1360 people, and fully equipped outdoor facilities, UWI SPEC is widely recognised as a significant resource for regional sport development, training and research. During the weeklong Games, the SPEC will be converted into a Recreational Village, where athletes and supporters can enjoy a relaxed atmosphere, music and entertainment. Read full story at UWI
