Centro Caribe Sports targets development for regional success

[ad_1]

The Central American and Caribbean Sports Organization is spearheading several initiatives to strengthen the connections between national Olympic committees, and offer training to journalists within the region.

The organiser’s overall aim is to forge new relationships through the initiatives which fall under the Huellas project.

Recently, the organisation facilitated training for journalists, who represented more than 30 countries, including the Cayman Islands.

The aim was to equip all parties with the necessary tools to assist in coverage, through education, networking and workshops which featured Olympians and executives from Panam Sports.

It offered opportunities for the participants to tour the Félix Sánchez Olympic Stadium which will host the FIFA U17 Women’s World Cup.

Participants also visited the National Institute of Professional Technical Training (INFOTEP) where Luis Mejía, president of Centro Caribe Sports, signed a deal with the institute to introduce year-long courses for those in the field.

Speaking with Compass journalist Seaford Russell Jr, who was in the Dominican Republic for the signing, Mejía, through a translator, said that the deal will open more doors for those looking to venture into sports journalism.

“It’s very important for the Caribbean and the Cayman Islands to have representation,” he said. “It can also be fundamental going forward.”

While INFOTEP will offer an option for people looking to further their education, for the immediate future it will be exclusive to regional members only.

“At first it will be opening for Central America and the Caribbean, but eventually it will be accessible for everyone in the world,” Mejía added.

The courses will be launching within the next couple of weeks.
