HJ’s day of sports Sunday

The Culmination of March Madness – The month long anniversary celebration for HJ 94 Radio will happen this Sunday at the Eve Leary Police Ground with the Hits and Jams Day of Sports; As expected, the event is already shaping up to be electric.

The event has been expanded to include more categories of people as well as more races including the 4X1 men’s and women’s relay, the male and female 200 and 400 Meter races; as well as 3 a side football, limited over cricket, lime and spoon race, a beer drinking contest and a bun eating competition – This is in addition to the standard races.

The highlight of last year’s day of sports was the Entertainer’s Race which saw Rawle Ferguson running away from the field to claim first place, with Kerwin Bollers coming in a distant second. This year the race will include many other entertainers, many of whom, inclusive of Kerwin Bollers are going through extensive and strict exercise routines daily. It is clear that they are gunning for Rawle and much more prepared than last year.

The team from the media is shaping up as well with Rawle Toney and Triston Joseph, the latter a former national athlete, throwing down the gauntlet at a recent press conference, saying that they will easily win the relays.

There will also be races by various companies and organizations as well as special events for members of the arts including models, comedians, dancers, deejays, singers and radio personalities.

The day will kick off literally with 3 a side football, which will then be followed by cricket before the track events begin. The event is open and free to all patrons and there will be special giveaways all day. The action starts at 11 AM!
