On this Olympic Day (June 23); Jamaica has a lot to celebrate. Since 1948 (Summer Olympic Games) and 1988 (Winter Olympic Games) except 2006 - Jamaica has competed in all those competitions. Over 350 athletes have represented. We salute #Jamaica and the athletes
Congratulations to Shanoya Douglas of Holland High School and Riquelme Reid of Excelsior High!

“Even as an outsider to it, you know this name (Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce) — you know this icon.”
Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce and Alexis Ohanian speaking on @CBSMornings about Shelly’s incredible 18-year career and being honoured at Athlos this weekend in New York 🗽🍎
Today, the curtain closed on a remarkable chapter in global athletics. 🇯🇲
Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce has competed in her final World Championships, and with it, she leaves behind a legacy that few in sport will ever match.
From Beijing 2008 to now, she has given us moments of pride, resilience, and unmatched greatness. More than her medals, Shelly-Ann has been a symbol of determination, humility, and inspiration for generations of Jamaicans.
On behalf of a grateful nation, thank you, Shelly-Ann, for lifting our flag higher and higher. You are not only a sprint queen, you are a Jamaican legend.
