Holiday and New Year Message from the Dean

Dear Staff and Students,

As we approach another festive season and another New Year, I wish to take the opportunity to thank every one of you for your important contribution to the development of our still nascent Faculty of Sport. There is no gainsaying that without you, there just would not be any Faculty of Sport.

The past year may have had mixed fortunes for many but in particular, as we enter this holiday period, let us spare a thought for those who were ravaged by Hurricane Melissa across the Caribbean and particularly in Jamaica. Let's continue to reach out to the affected persons and communities where we can as they try to rebuild their lives and return to some semblance of normalcy. In particular, let's reach out to our affected students where necessary.

I hope that you all take the opportunity to get some much-needed rest and to spend quality time with your family and friends as you try to recharge your batteries for the new semester and year ahead. So Happy Christmas holidays to you all and may you have a New Year that is filled with positivity energy and bountiful rewards.

Best wishes as well to all the members of our sport community both within and outside of the University.

END

Regards,

Dr Roy Mc Cree(PhD)
