Trinidad and Tobago’s commitment to clean sport took centre stage on Thursday, as the Minister of Sport and Youth Affairs, Phillip Watts, welcomed officials from the World Anti-Doping Agency to his Port of Spain office.

The high-level courtesy visit saw WADA represented by Raphael Renzende, alongside Dr. Sasha Sutherland of the Caribbean Regional Anti-Doping Organization. Also in attendance were Permanent Secretary Penelope Bradshaw-Niles, representatives of the local Anti-Doping Organisation, Douglas Camacho and Andre Collins, and Trinidad and Tobago Olympic Committee President Diane Henderson, accompanied by Dr. Terry Ali and Rheeza Grant.

Talks centred on athlete well-being, the promotion of clean sport, and strengthening anti-doping systems and education across the country.

Minister Watts reaffirmed his commitment to fair competition, as Trinidad and Tobago continues to build its standing as a regional leader in sports integrity and athlete-centred governance.
