Legendary sprinter and world-renowned broadcaster Ato Boldon has issued a scathing assessment of the state of track and field in Trinidad and Tobago, declaring he has “never seen it this bad” and laying the blame squarely at the feet of the sport’s governing body.
Boldon, who won T&T’s first-ever World Championship gold medal in the 200m in Athens 1997, made his powerful comments during an appearance on the iSports Saturday programme with Andre Errol Baptiste on i95.5FM here on Saturday.
The former Olympic medallist did not mince words, stating that the National Association of Athletic Administrations (NAAA) needs to take a long, hard look in the mirror if the sport is to be saved from its current decline.
