THE Ministry of Sport and Community Development is keeping in contact with the family of former national track and field athlete Deon Lendore.

PRINCIPAL of Queen’s Royal College (QRC) David Simon said Deon Lendore’s name will never die at the college, as any Olympian who walked the halls of the famous institution deserves a special place.

Trinidad and Tobago’s Olympic and world medallist Deon Lendore has died at the age of 29 after being involved in a car accident in Texas in the United States.

Members of the public are being invited to test their fitness and support the country’s athletes.
