History was created last evening at the Ato Boldon Stadium in Couva, where Rowena Williams became the first-ever female president of the Trinidad and Tobago Cycling Federation (TTCF).
Williams, who previously served as TTCF racing secretary, defeated incumbent Robert Farrier, who served for one term.
Williams' election was one of several changes to the TTCF executive.
Former president Farrier is now one of three vice-presidents, the others being Don Gibbon and Phillip Marshall.
Frank Gittens takes over Williams' old post as racing secretary, while Joseph Roberts is the new general secretary and Melissa Constance the assistant racing secretary.
Reacting to the change at the top, Farrier said: "The people have spoken, they wanted change. I hope this new executive put their heads together and go forward for the good of the cyclists."
