There are a number of things that we know here in the Nature Isle of the Caribbean, Dominica, and that is for which talent rains and reign supreme! Not only here in Dominica, but across the Caribbean. The uniqueness that we contribute to the world by far, outweighs unilateral thought. However, Dominica is the key focus today so Dominica it is! Dominica is one of the small Caribbean Islands which harnesses very little resources by which it enables its talent to be utilized. In other words, skillset is under utilized in my country! :'( Take for example the Dominican bikers who left to go to St Lucia and won most of their drag races defying the odds. Dominica doesn't have a strip where bikers can practice or anything of that sort yet still, within its odds(including Hurricane Maria's destruction on the island), Dominica still showed up and showed out! This brings us to yet another talent found here, today, this one found in the smallest of youths.
For as long as I have lived, I have seen and heard of great players playing the game of football. Whether it be on the international, regional and local stages. I have always dreamt of seeing Dominica rise to the occasion by which it is able to reckon with the international star countries but no matter how we try, it never seems to happen which brings us to the youth! THERE IS HOPE HALLELUJAH and they are found in our Primary Schools on island! These primary school boys playing here today are vying for the title of Champions for 2018 at the Dominica Primary School Football Finals and, dare I say, these guys are freaking good! Some have even compared their skillset to be far better than some of the older ones on island. Kudos goes out the the coaches for their dedicated effort in ensuring that the local youth may just have a fighting chance on the international stage. I saw The local Portsmouth RDPS School boys at practice at the Benjamin Park.... so you know I was eager to be at the Finals to see them play against the other team. Roosevelt Douglas Primary School (better known as RDPS) versus the St. Mary's Primary School (better known as SMP) were sure to put on a show for those in attendance at the Windsor Park Sports Stadium and now we are happy to bring to you some of the highlights that took place! Enjoy!
