A Guyanese contingent will head to the coral-based island of Nassau, The Bahamas to represent the Golden Arrowhead at the sixth staging of Commonwealth Youth Games from 19 – 23 of July.

The games, which are usually characterized as a multi-cultural experience, will see Guyana competing alongside 69 other Commonwealth states in what is anticipated to be the largest sporting event to ever grace the island.

It is reported to be the largest edition of the youth games with an estimated 1300 athletes between the ages of 14 – 18 expected to add to as well as experience the Caribbean athletics flavor.
