FINANCIAL CHALLENGES have threatened the Sport For Life Barbados Programme but its discontinuation is not an option.

Director of the programme Kathy Harper-Hall yesterday met with the stakeholders at the KOMI boardroom, Kensington Oval, to discuss the way forward.

“We have had a number of challenges with the programme but the main one we have right now is funding. We have called in all the stakeholders so that we can brainstorm to see how best we can come up with the funds,” she said.

Harper-Hall told NATION SPORT it usually took over $80 000 to run the programme each year.  (RG)
