The Barbados Lottery has a new game “Going For Gold” starting from Monday where players spend as little as $3 for a ticket and can win up to $20,000! Part of the proceeds from this scratch game will be donated in a special ceremony in April 2020.
Also providing support is the Japanese Embassy to Barbados, their Ambassador Teruhiko Shinada spoke to media, athletes, executives and other participants and supporters.
BOA Director Ytannia Wiggins, who also doubled as emcee, noted 5 new sports were added for these games and saw this as an opportunity for Barbados to gain a medal once again, just like when Obadele Thompson did in 2000. Ms Wiggins expressed hope how Chelsea Tuach would pull a gold in Surfing, which is one of the five new sports added for the upcoming games…
Seven athletes will be heading for the 32nd Olympiad two weeks before it starts July 24th next year, they will stay in Nanyo City getting accustomed to the climate and Japanese culture.
