The South American Senior Championships and the CARIFTA Games both hang in the balance due to a surge in cases of COVID-19 in the respective host territories, Argentina and Bermuda.
According to President of the Athletic Association of Guyana (AAG), Aubrey Hutson, “Argentina has recently indicated that they cannot host the South American Championships” while the fate of the Caribbean showpiece should be known tomorrow.
The championships were initially scheduled to be held in Buenos Aires from May 14-16. Currently, an alternative date and host nation is being discussed by the South American Athletics Confederation (CONSUDATLE).
