For the past 60 years student athletes excelling at the National Schools Swimming, Cycling and track and Field Championships are rewarded with medals and a pat on the back.

In the 21st century, the modus operandi for rewarding schools and collegiate athletes have shifted and there could be a shift in future ‘Nationals’.

This is of course if President of the Guyana Teachers’ Union (GTU), Mark Lyte gets his wish.
