Martin Gomez, the President of the Gambia Secondary Schools Sports Association (GSSSA) has rated the just concluded Inter-Schools Athletics Championship held at the Independence Stadium in Bakau as the most successful competition.
He pointed out that this is so, because the committee had capitalised on previous mistakes to ensure that there is maximum fair play during the competition.
"The competition is for school-going children and I am sure that there was no foul play during the competition," Gomez stated responding to a question raised concerning the use of non-school children.
He expressed a strong belief that that the Gambia Athletics Association (GAA) will invite some athletes for a trial.
