Barbados secured two silver medals at the recently concluded World Junior's and Master's Bodybuilding and Fitness Championships in Bialystok,Poland from the 14th to 15th of November.

Almost 300 athletes from 44 countries from the five hemispheres attended these championships.

Laron Gibson was second in the Junior Men's under 75kg while Rashida Belgrave was second in the Junior Women's Bodybuilding category.

Patrick Harris and Ramon Broomes were eighth in the Master's men 40-49yrs,under 70kg and Junior Men's under 75kg respectively.

Nikita Robinson was 7th in the Junior Women's Body fitness. Nikita had to make the switch to Body fitness instead of fitness after sustaining a significant injury to her right knee just prior to her departure. It was unfortunate that she was unable to display her incredible routine.

The entire management team and the local Federation is pleased with the performance of this team which validates our belief that our juniors could be competative at the World level in three years.
