LOCAL ATHLETICS didn’t waste time recognising its own.

The best of Bajan track and field were the toast of the town after the Athletics Association of Barbados (AAB) honoured several of their top athletes, coaches and officials in a glitzy awards ceremony on Friday night at the Beach One Bar.

It’s the first time in almost a decade that the executive held such a function to acknowledge their top achievers – several of whom were honoured just days earlier at the Barbados Olympic Association’s awards gala.

The ceremony couldn’t have come at a better time though, with 2015 serving as a real banner year for local track and field that saw a number of record-breaking performances and medal-winning feats.
