AND THE LITTLE ONES SHALL LEAD THEM, or so the saying goes.
Even a champion like Julian “Michael Jackson” White, who has won 21 road tennis titles, needs a bit of advice now and then.
In the midst of his ding-dong “A” Class battle with Anthony “Ears” Mitchell in the final of the National Inter-Parish Road Tennis Championships last Sunday at Dover, White’s nine-year-old son Ramario Hinkson was full of advice.
The assistant coach pointed out where Mitchell was attacking, and told his father: “Daddy, keep on top of him, don’t let him attack.”
The advice must have paid off because the skilful White, Barbados’ undisputed No.1, defeated Mitchell 21-18, 21-19, earning a second title for St Michael. (SAT)
