The only way to promote our sports to a high level is to help our sports men and women who really want to become sports people in The Gambia.

Pointsports has carried out a special interview with ex Nusrat Senior Secondary School athlete Fatou N. Sanyang at her training ground at the Independence Stadium in Bakau. Miss. Sanyang (23) said, “I have the talent to compete for The Gambia if only I am giving the opportunity. I have competed in different events and have had good results. All I need is support from philanthropists to help me I really need sponsors.” She said that she took part in the Brufut marathon competition over 8km and come first. She also took part in last years Brikama 5km and again came first.
