Tonique Williams-Darling, the 35-year-old former sprinter from Bahamas, who was a gold medallist for 400m at the 2004 Summer Olympics, has opened up her summer clinic again this season.
The motivated athlete, who wishes to inspire her young nationals to opt for a healthy lifestyle, had kicked-off with the idea of opening up this clinic around three years ago, which was immediately materialised. Observing an impressive and encouraging start, the clinic at New Providence is attracting a good number of youngsters from around the local communities.
The camp, which will last for a week at the Thomas A. Robinson Track and Field Stadium, is getting larger and larger with each passing year. With the aim to offer free athletics guidance to ages 12 and above, the clinic runs from 8 in the morning to 12 in the noon. It stays open six days in a week.
