    Here we go again... management immaturity... personalities... these people do not understand focus on the job... all over Jamaica we suffer because management cannot separate personalities from the job at hand. If you check it you will find the same problem in POLITICS, BUSINESS, SPORTS, EDUCATION etc... etc...

      She cannot get involve because this violate the rules of the Olympics governing body.

      It’s a fact. I have seen it happen lots of times. The international Olympic committee likewise FIFA the UCI World Athletics just to name a few none and I repeat none allows governments to interfere in they respective sporting bodies. The souls reason for this is not to allow politicians to try and score cheap political points thereby bringing the sport into dispute. I gave you an example of Dominica. In fact just last year the government of Trinidad 🇹🇹 and the courts there tried to inferred into the TT football association. FIFA warned them any involvement of them will not be accepted they went ahead. End result FIFA placed a ban on Trinidad until the people they removed from the executive were all reinstated. They had no choice by to reinstate all because could not play any games again country neither have any football locally

    You can tell that our athletes love their nation, because they’re not running to other countries to make more money for representing them. So, if Mr. Mills is saying that the JOA is funded by sponsors, then why are they acting as if they can’t properly fund our athletes ❓What’s going on with the money ❓Who are the JOA accountable to ❓

    This is what happens when money is been siffoned off without any transparency and accountability.

It is expected that if a person seeks a position in the JOA or JAAA, it is because they want to do good for "their country". But that never seems to be the case. Now, If Donald Quarrie has become a part of the problem, it would suggest that this Cult is far more dangerous than could be imagined.

    Ricardo, I have always held you in high regard, and it hasn't changed.
    You spoke recently about transparency, so here we go.Lack of transparency +lack of transparency =animosity, egos, and one upmanship.
    We are our worst enemies, and then people criticise Franno when he speaks.
    I am also abit conflicted about the Minister saying she can't get involved, so who are these bodies answerable to?Mars and Jupiter mek it mek sense or mi fool.What a tangled web,see here Jamaica,Jamaica, Jamaica not a real place!!Then these same people going to tek plane pack up di place in Paris and revel in de glory of whatever success we achieve,all about the photo opts.

    "Why is there so much chaos within these professional organizations? It's truly a disgrace on a global scale! We need to focus on the bigger picture for the Olympics, which is not about these unprofessional and unethical individuals. It's about the extraordinary dedication and sacrifices made by the athletes to proudly represent their country, Jamaica."

    What does the JOA do with the Monies they receive. Olympics isn't every year so JOA should be putting everything in place to cover our athletes. Our athletes are our priority. JOA get it right. If this story isn't right, what's your side? Please all take self out of this. Please be guided and reminded that the athletes need the support systems in place

    Now I know why some Jamaican track athletes switched allegiance back in the day. These organizations are biting the hand that literally feeds them. I don’t blame Elaine and others for being all about their contract money if this is what they have to deal with. I am Canadian and the fact that Canada is sending more support personnel while having a smaller team and less medal contenders is disgraceful.

    Ricky there is a formula the IOC uses for qualifying athletes to determine the number of officials and administrators that can get accreditation for the team. The size of the team determines the amount of officials and administrators can go. Remember no track and field athlete has qualified yet, only swimming, judo and diving have already qualified. So the JAAA can indicate what they want but when you punch that in the calculator on the registration system, the formula that you have no control over applies.

    These guys are bringing their personal beef to national business. Now the Leon Bailey situation seems unrelated but it isn't. Even schools at CHamps gi alm out to ensure the comfort of the athletes. Hiowever JFF and JAAA try to manipulate and act as if they are doing the athletes a favour. Alopy travel low stipend, no support, monitoring adult like primary school with curfews. Unless its for security, curfews for adult pro athletes makes no sense as most know what to do to get peak performance.
