IT WON’T be dual roles anymore for long-serving sports administrator, Steve Stoute.

In fact, Stoute, who now has added responsibilities as president of the Central American Caribbean Sports Organisation (CACSO), says only unexpected situations can get him to seek another term as president of the Barbados Olympic Association (BOA) when elections are held on October 25.

Stoute, who will celebrate his 75th birthday later this month, told WEEKENDSPORT he is sticking to his plans to demit office after serving as head of the body for six consecutive terms from 1996.

“While it would be desirable to be president of both, I made a pledge four years ago that I would step down, so unless there are unforeseen circumstances, I plan to honour that plan,” he said. (EZS)
