Excitement for the inaugural Grand Slam Track series continues to mount, with Head of Athletes Relations Morolake Akinosun revealing that the first Challenger has been signed for the Kingston leg of the competition. The meet, scheduled for April at Jamaica’s National Stadium, will be the first of four stops in the groundbreaking series.
Morolake Akinosun, Head of Athletes Relations for Grand Slam Track, has expressed confidence that despite the early start to the Grand Slam Track season in April, athletes will deliver world-class performances. Akinosun addressed concerns regarding the timing of the inaugural meet, which falls at a point in the season when many athletes, especially those from the Western Hemisphere, are still transitioning from indoor competition or just beginning their outdoor training programs.
With the Grand Slam Track Series set to debut at the National Stadium in Kingston from April 4-6, 2025, just five days after the ISSA GraceKennedy Boys and Girls Championships, the big question remains—will Jamaican fans turn out?
