If he could get one wish granted immediately it would be for the playing fields and various sporting arenas across the country to be in proper condition.

“Lights for grounds, the different tracks, the various floors and turfs

for the sportsmen and women who train and play on different surfaces, I would wish for all of these things to be put in place,” said Dr. George Norton, the new Minister of Sports.

It’s been less than a month (September 1) since Dr. Norton took over as Minister of Culture, Youth and Sport, from Nicolette Henry and the good doctor is fully aware of the challenges ahead and said that he plans to tackle the issues affecting the development of sports.
