Oval out

The red flag has been raised and school sports will not be held at Kensington Oval after all.
Last week, the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) invoked an exclusivity clause which prevents any activity being held at the Oval one month prior to the start of the second Test match against Zimbabwe on March 12.
And both the organizers of the Barbados Secondary Schools Athletic Championships (BSSAC) and the National Primary Schools Athletic Championships (NAPSAC) are now hoping that the National Stadium will be back in operation by the beginning of March.
Ben Toppin, acting chief executive officer of Kensington Oval Management Inc., confirmed the change to the SUNDAY SUN in an interview late Friday evening.
