Ms. Lalisa Anthony President / Commissioner Bahamas Youth Football Freeport, Grand Bahama

Dear Madame

Thank you once again for your communication. However the CAFL can not share with you, in congratulating the others of your organization you on their so called accomplishments of membership to the International Federation of American Football IFAF, as they have been achieved by fraudulent means. Your note of congratulation is directed to Bahamians whom I would be surprised would have been a part of what you have orchestrated.

For those who will read this communication, we in the Commonwealth American Football League of the Bahamas have been tolerating the self serving, aggressive and clandestine actions of Ms. Lalisa Anthony since she came into this country two years ago. Ms, Anthony, an American and Bahamians Stanford Duhaney and Renaldo Russell know very well what the CAFL’s position is on the matter of their operations as executive members of the Bahamas Youth Football / Bahamas American Football Federation which is not recognized by the CAFL the governing body for American Football in the Bahamas. The CAFL supports American Football played at any level in this country, however we cannot support persons whom wish to use this event to serve themselves. The CAFL does not take lightly that a person who is a non citizen can come into the country, would seek to use weak persons, set up shop and demand compensation for services. We take grave exception to Ms. Anthony’s motives where she would be seek local and international sponsor donations for the procurement of equipment for the play of youth football without cost and then wish to sell them to the players based on information received.

We take alarming exception to Ms. Anthony as the President and Commissioner of the Bahamas Youth Football / Bahamas American Football Federation, clearly a conflict of interest when it comes to management and we take grave exception that Ms. Anthony would seek to have coaches pay her office to cover, as she describes strategically, “her expenses”.

Communication to Ms. Lalisa Anthony Cont/.

July 27, 2008

Whereas many of you are not aware there is a thrust internationally to for the development of American Football. The PAFAF to which Ms. Anthony has subscribed is only two years old with a majority of countries whom have a limited number of years in playing American football. The Bahamas has played the sport of American football in an organized fashion for forty years under the administration of the Bahamas American Football Association BAFA or the Commonwealth American Football League CAFL longer than most countries in this region save the U.S. Canada and Mexico.

It is in this vein that Ms. Anthony came to “introduce” football to the Bahamas just two years ago, a statement she has perpetrated to international organizations for personal recognition and funding. To achieve her goals, membership to International Federations were a necessity and the misleading acts to accomplish this were executed as follows;

  1. In April of 2008 Miss Anthony, with the assistance of Bahamians Stanford Duhaney and Renaldo Russell as fronts misrepresented themselves as the Bahamas Youth Football / Bahamas American Football Federation to the Pan American Federation of American Football PAFAF in Panama as the governing body for American Football / Bahamas to gain membership. This group knew fully well that requirement for membership to the PAFAF was a governing status in the country of origin which they were not.
  2. Ms. Anthony, again with the assistance of Bahamians Stanford Duhaney received travel assistance from the Ministry of Sports to attend the PAFAF Congress in Panama. However the point of dishonesty is that they did not advise the Government that they were seeking membership to the PAFAF where they knew that a requirement for membership to the PAFAF was that they had to be the governing body in the country from which the application is applied.

3. Ms. Anthony, with the misrepresented acquisition of membership status to the Pan American Federation PAFAF, so again misrepresented and misled the greater International Federation of American Football IFAF in Seville Spain on or before July 21 2008 to acquire membership into that organization. Again, a primary requirement for membership to the IFAF is a membership status to the PAFAF and governing status in the country of origin which they were not.

For the understanding of those whom Ms. Anthony congratulated, the achievement was gained based on an “act of misdeed “. Please be advised that the Ministry of Sports of the Bahamas had prior to the application for membership to the IFAF denied an application from Ms. Anthony’s group, the Bahamas Youth Football / Bahamas American Football Federation for Federation Status. This denial was instructed after the first misrepresentation to the PAFAF. The Ministry of Sports of the Bahamas also provided a direct diplomatic letter to the Robert Huber, the then General Secretary of the International Federation of American Football IFAF to advise that the Commonwealth American Football League is the recognized body for American Football in the Country of the Bahamas and not the Bahamas Youth Football / Bahamas American Football Federation. The letter was received and responded to by Mr. Huber and the CAFL was advised to direct the matter to the new General Secretary Mr. Hendrik Oenstroem which we have done. The CAFL response to all matters will be as follows;

  1. File a writ to the Bahamas Department of Immigration and Customs.
  2. File an official complaint to the Bahamas Ministry of Foreign Affairs
  3. File a complaint to the United States Embassy / Bahamas based on the actions of one of its citizens in a violation of the sovereignty of a foreign country.

Communication to Ms. Lalisa Anthony Cont/.

July 27, 2008

Additionally legal actions have been filed based on the illegal use of named persons in a Document of Support submitted to the Government of the Bahamas in an attempt to mislead and receive federation status by fraudulent means. We will seek to have Ms. Anthony et al charged with a violation to the right of sovereignty in respect to actions of misrepresenting the BYF/BAFF your organization, to International Organizations on behalf of the country of the Bahamas.

Unlike the misrepresentation to the PAFAF where Ms. Anthony deflected responsibility to Mr. Stanford Duhaney and Mr. Renaldo Russell we are confirmed that Ms. Anthony misrepresented this country to the IFAF in Seville.

To you Ms. Anthony, you must think that this country of the Bahamas is a subject of the United States. You are a non status foreigner whom we are advised possesses no work permit or any other status to be in this country other than a visitor. You seemingly have arrogated unto yourself the power to ignore that an official Government Ministry which advised you that the Commonwealth American Football League CAFL is the governing body for American Football in this country. Additionally you have arrogantly chosen to ignore a diplomatic letter from an official Government Ministry, signed on behalf of a Government Minister to achieve your personal goals in arrogantly marketing the sovereignty and flag of this country the Bahamas, without authoritative permission to the IFAF.

Your actions in our opinion should be an embarrassment to your great country and to us continentally as people of African decent. Your teary eyed pleas on behalf of the Bahamian youth, is greatly overshadowed by your indiscretions. Willfully so, it is now very clear that your personal objective overshadows any act of charity first promoted. Having been denied by the former, Minister of Sport, we are aware of your recent communications to Mr. Archie Nairn, the new Permanent Secretary Ministry of Youth & Sports and to the new Minister to persuade them to reverse previous orders which have failed. What you have failed to relay to them in your heap of E-mail communications is your indiscretions and lies to achieve membership to the PAFAF and the IFAF.

Communication to Ms. Lalisa Anthony Cont/.
Please be advised that we will stop at nothing to stop you in your dishonest quests.

Your actions shall be broadcasted to every media, local and international organization, and the appropriate governmental institutions that are concerned. You really seem to think that you can influence this government to support you an illegal American governing a one year organization over a Bahamian organization with governing body status and of good standing of forty years where unlike to you, a penny was never paid or expended to anyone. We will not ask you to desist as that time is past.

We trust that you will cease and take our position seriously.

Yours Etc.

McPhee: This will be the  hardest 14 days of his life

HEILD TEST POSITIVE FOR COVID-19 – Grand Bahamian and shooting guard for the Sacramento Kings, Chavano “Buddy” Hield (center) is one of the few National Basketball Association’s (NBA) players to have tested positive for COVID-19 ahead of the league’s re-start set for July 30. The news was reported by The Athletic’s Shams Charania, June 24. Two of his teammates, center Alex Len and forward Jabari Parker also tested positive for the virus. There was no report on where each player contracted the virus. (AP PHOTO)SportsTop Gallery  June 25, 2020  FN Sports Reporter Shayne Stubbs

In light of the recent discovery of hometown superstar Chavano “Buddy” Hield testing positive for COVID-19, the Sacramento Kings’ shooting guard has received a number of well wishes from residents on social media platforms and otherwise. 

The Freeport News reached out to longtime coach Gladstone “Moon” McPhee, who, has a well-documented history with the 6’5’’ guard. Much like everyone the news came as a surprise. 

While there was no report on where Hield could have contracted the virus, the sharpshooter’s performance in the Skinz League went viral. He scored 45 points while sinking 13 three-pointers. The game was played in Oklahoma City earlier this month.

“I am surprised. But, I found out he was working out. He just loves the game so much. We all believe at times it won’t happen to us, but it just happened and it’s unfortunate. 

“I know this will be the hardest 14 days in his life whereby he can’t play or workout, and he loves the game so much. All we can do is keep him in our prayers,” said McPhee.

Hield is one of several National Basketball Association’s (NBA) players to have tested positive for COVID-19, just ahead of the league’s re-start set for July 30. 

The news was reported by The Athletic’s Shams Charania on June 24. Two of his teammates, center Alex Len and forward Jabari Parker, reportedly also tested positive for the virus. There was no report on where each player contracted the virus. 

Hield and the other players who tested positive must now quarantine for two weeks as teams get set to begin training camp for the league’s return-to-play. June 22 marks the return of players to their respective training facilities. 

According to CBSSports.com, the NBA began phase two of six, of their plan to resume the season, which meant teams could begin testing their players. 

Since then, a number of NBA players have been tagged as COVID-19 positive, including the Denver Nuggets’ center Nikola Jokic, Indiana Pacers’ point guard Malcom Brogdo, and, two unnamed players from the Phoenix Suns. 

The NBA is said to be prepared for a wave of positive tests in the coming days. 

The Sacramento Kings are a part of the 22 teams set to resume the season at Disney World in Orlando, Florida. Training camp begins June 30 and teams will begin travel to the bubble location on July 7.

The Kings will resume the season in the 11th seed with a 28-36 record, 3.5 games behind the Memphis Grizzlies who are holding the eighth and final playoff spot in the western conference.  

Hield is one of the main contributors to the Kings’ success. Hield is the team’s second leading scorer at 19.8 points per game while shooting 42.9 percent from the field and 39.5 percent from the three-point arch. He also averaged 4.8 rebounds and a career-high in assists at 3.1 per game.

The 22 teams set to resume the season, will play eight regular season games, then there will be a play-in tournament which will feature the number eight and number nine teams in both eastern and western conferences. If the ninth seed finishes the regular season within four games of the eighth seed, the number eight seed enters a double-elimination tournament, and the number nine seed a single-elimination tournament.

Teams already locked into playoff spots include Western Conference leaders in the Los Angeles Lakers (49-14) and Eastern conference leaders, the Milwaukee Bucks (53-12). 

Second in the East are the Toronto Raptors (46-18), with the Boston Celtics (43-21) following in third. 

In fourth are the Miami Heat (41-24), fifth place the Indiana Pacers (39-26), and sixth place the Philadelphia 76’ers (39-26) – who are all expected to clinch playoff berths. 

The Brooklyn Nets (30-34), Orlando Magic (30-35) hold the seventh and eighth spots respectively in that conference while the Wizards will play from ninth place at 24-40).

With the eight-game format in the West, the second place Clippers (44-20), third place Denver Nuggets (43-22), fourth place Utah Jazz (41-23), fifth place Oklahoma City Thunder (40-24), sixth place Houston Rockets (40-24) are expected to clinch berths out West.

The seventh place Dallas Mavericks, at 40-27, are on the verge of clinching their play-off berth out West. The Trailblazers hold the ninth seed at 29-37, the Pelicans are 10th at 28-36, the Spurs are in 12th place at 27-36, Bahamian DeAndre Ayton and the Suns are 13th in the west at 26-39. 

The league suspended play back in March due to COVID-19 pandemic.

#AT least eight athletes, led by repeat performers Tarhji Hudson, Denvaughn Whymms, Anthaya Charlton, Gabrielle Gibson, Raymond Oriakhi and Acacia Astwood, attained the CARIFTA Games standards, while high jumper Jamal Wilson surpassed the mark for the Commonwealth Games at the Club Monica Track Classic held on Saturday.

#It was the third meet for the month and the second straight that athletes have done the qualifying standards for the Games, scheduled for March 30 to April 2, although they will have to wait until the Bahamas Association of Athletic Associations holds its final trials to determine if they make the team or not.

#At the Thomas A Robinson Stadium, Joel Johnson, competing for BSD Juniors, clocked 10.33 seconds to win the under-20 boys’ 100 metres as he attained his qualifying standards of 10.60 in one of the most outstanding performances at the two-day meet.

#Adrian Curry, who just fell short of the standard in the century at the Roadrunners Track Classic the week before, won the under-20 boys’ 200m in 21.24 and was joined by his Club Monica team-mate Denvaughn Whymms, who ran 21.37 as they both dipped under the standard of 21.45.

#It was the third qualifying performance from Whymms, who also ran 13.56 to win the under-20 boys’ 110m hurdles to go under the standard of 14.00. Just last week at the Roadrunners’ meet, Whymms qualified in the long jump. Whymms qualified for all three events in then under-18 division at last year’s games in Willemstad, Curacao where he won the long jump gold, but got injured and was unable to complete the triple.

#Also at the Roadrunners meet, Tarijh Hudson qualified in the under-17 boys discus with 47.81m (156-10). Over the weekend, the Cooper Throwers’ competitor improved on previous performance of by throwing 48.85 (160-3). The qualifying standard is 41.50m (136-2).

#Gabrielle Gibson of the Sunblazers ran 19.96 to go under the standard of 14.00 in the under-20 girls 100m hurdles. She came back over the weekend and almost duplicate the time by winning in 13.97.

#Anthaya Charlton, back home after she (12.03) and Jaide Knowles (11.89) qualified in the under-17 100m at a meet in Jamaica last weekend, dipped under the standard of 12.06 again by winning the straight away race in 12.00.

#Raymond Oriakhi of Club Monica clocked 14.21 in the under-17 boys’ 110m hurdles to surpass the standard of 14.37 at the Roadrunners meet. Over the weekend, lowered his qualifying time to 14.01.

#And Acadia Astwood of the Blue Chip Athletics, who surpassed in the under-20 girls discus at the BAAA’s Odd Distance Meet in December, duplicated her feat with a winning toss of 45.27m (149-6) over the weekend. The qualifying standard is 41.00 (136-4).

#Meanwhile, Jamal Wilson, competing in the men’s high jump for RC Athletics, soared 2.28m (7-5 3/4) to win and match the qualifying mark for the Commonwealth Games, scheduled for April 4-15 in the Gold Coast, Australia. Ryan Ingraham, representing Leap of Faith, returned to action with a second place finish with 2.10m (6-10 3/4).

#In non qualified events, V’Alonee Robinson of the Bahamas Speed Dynamics, was the winner of the women’s 100m in 11.89 and and the 200m in 24.88. Perez Knowles clocked 10.93 for the men’s century title. Bradley Dormeus of Bahamas Speed Dynamics won the open men’s 400m in 50.02.

#The 800m saw Sierra Sears of Fast Forward take the under-17 girls’ race in 2:23.33; Elijah Mitchell, also of Fast Forward, won the under-17 boys’ race in 2:14.51. Maya Miller of the Ambassadors won the under-20 girls’ race in 2:34.76 and Mookie Rolle of Swift Athletics won the under-20 boys’ race in 1:58.73. Tavia Bullard of the University of the Bahamas was the winner of the open women’s two lap race in 2:37.76 and Austin Clarke of BSD Juniors won the open men’s race in 2:02.28.

#Of note in the age group segment, Zara Fraser of Fast Forward sped to a double dose of victory in the under-9 girls’ 100m in 15.41 and the 200 in 32.29. Taevan Saint-Louis of the T-Bird Flyers won the boys’ 100 in 15.72 and Kamron Henfield of Kids’ Athletics took the 200m in 33.07.

#Keimahri Hana of Spirit of Excellence got the girls’ under-11 double in the 100m in 14.96 and the 200m in 29.75. Jaden Clarke of Club Monica took the tape in the boys’ 100 in 13.97 and Kion Burrows of thew Ambassadors walked away with the 200m in 28.36.

#Lanique Thompson, unattached, won the girls’ under-13 race in 13.37 and doubled up in the 200m in 27.23. NiJae McBride of Spirit of Excellence was the winner of the boys’ event in 13.37, but his time of 27.49 was good enough for second in the 200 behind Philip Gray of DTSP Wolfpack, who won in 26.74.

#And Paige Archer of Xtreme Athletics also doubled up as she took the under-15 girls’ 100m in 12.61 and the 200m in 25.85. Club Monica’s Zachary Evans clocked 11.49 for the boys’ title and Otto Laing captured the 200m in 23.70.

#PERRY Adderley turned in another CARIFTA Games qualifying performance with his double dose of victory as a group of field coaches hosted their second Throwers All-Comers Meet on Saturday.

#The meet was held at the College of the Bahamas as coaches Corrington Maycock, Bradley Cooper and Ronald Cartwright took advantage of the absence of a track and field meet at the Thomas A Robinson Track and Field Stadium.

#Adderley, who had already qualified in the previous meet a couple weeks ago in the shot put in the boys’ under-18 division, added the discus to his participation in Martinique with his winning throw of 42.32 metres.

#His nearest rival was Malik Stuart of Throwers Inc. with 38.00m.

#Deondre Rutherford of RC Athletics was third with 37.40m. “I was very pleased with my performance because it was a PR and a CARIFTA qualifier, so I really want to thank God, my parents and my coaches for helping me to achieve this goal,” he said.

#“I started out a little shaky, but as the meet went on, I was able to do what I had to do.”

#The 16-year-old grade 11 student at St Augustine’s College also won the shot put with a heave of 14.66m with Stuart taking second with 14.07m. Terricko Stevens of Throwers Inc. was third with 12.67m.

#There were no other CARIFTA qualifiers in the meet, but Dominique Cooper (Queen’s College), Keenah Ross (RC Athletics), Sheriya Ferguson (College of the Bahamas), Ashley Oembler (College of the Bahamas), Avery Adderley (Road Runners) and Edward Kemp (RC Athletics) were among the multiple winners.

#Although she just competed in one event, Desiree Lockhart of RC Athletics had a strong showing in the girls’ under-18 shot put with a winning throw of 10.01m. She won over Jessica Johnson of Throwers Inc. with 9.96m and Tanas Miller of CI Gibson with 8.42m.

#“I could have done because my PR is over 11 metres, but I was a little weak today, so I just gave it my best and came out first,” said Lockhart, a 15-year-old 12th grader at CR Walker. “This is just my first year competing and I really want to go to Martinique for the Carifta Games.”

#Also looking to make the trip to Martinique for the games over the Easter holiday weekend is Edward Kemp, a 15-year-old 9th grader at Queen’s College. He won both the under-16 boys’ javelin (40.35m) and the discus (38.95m), but was beaten out in the shot put (12.78m) by his RC Athletics’ teammate Ramache Sands (13.17m).

#“It was great, but I got an injury on my thumb and so I wasn’t able to push the shot put off like I should have,” he said. “I still have to work on my push, but I am confident that by CARIFTA, if I get to go, I will be ready to compete.”

#And although she finished her junior eligibility last year, 19-year-old Ashley Oembler said the meet was good for her to work on all of her throws as she continues to compete for the College of the Bahamas.

#She was the lone competitor in the open women’s shot put (9.49m) and discus (37.34m).

#“Today was an off day. I could have done better. I have a lot more stuff to work on, mainly with the discus and shot put,” she said.

#“But it’s good to have these meets because sometimes when they have the meets at the sports centre, we are rushed to get through our events. In these meets, there’s more emphasis on us as we compete.”

#Meet director Corrington Maycock said they had anticipated more competitors, but they were satisfied that the competition was on par with the first meet that they had.

#“Perry Adderley continues to improve. He’s progressing as the season goes and we have another young man, Ranache Sands, who came out here not having a coach and established himself,” Maycock said.

#“Also, Desiree Lockhart continues to improve. But all of the big guns as far as the females are concerned, didn’t compete either because of injuries or they had other obligations like a funeral we know some of them were involved in.”

#Maycock said they are looking forward to putting on another Throwers All-Comers Meet on May 7 when they hope to honour Ronald Cartwright for his many years of service as a field’s coach.

#Cartwright, a coach of Maycock when he competed, said he was pleased to see all the throwers getting enthused about competing in their own meet.

#“This is what we need to get the throwing events back to where it was,” he said. “We need to be doing this every other week or every other three weeks. We have some very young throwers in this programme and they can only get better with the more meets that we have for them.”

#If they can continue to develop the competitors through this programme, Cartwright said he doesn’t see why in two years, the Bahamas should not be able to regain its prominence on the field as the most dominant country at the CARIFTA Games.

#And double national shot put and discus thrower Bradley Cooper, who has won medals for the Bahamas from the Carifta Games to the Commonwealth Games, said so far they have gotten two extra meets in and they are seeing the progress of their athletes.

#“It’s helping the development of the throwers and we are seeing them coming out and really enjoying their events, which is the most important thing,” he said. “We’re about 60 per cent where we need to be. But we need some more coaches to come out and work with the throwers.

#Right now we have about 6-10 coaches working with the throwers, but we have close to 50 throwers who were out here today and it’s just impossible to concentrate on all of them.

#PERRY Adderley turned in another CARIFTA Games qualifying performance with his double dose of victory as a group of field coaches hosted their second Throwers All-Comers Meet on Saturday.

#The meet was held at the College of the Bahamas as coaches Corrington Maycock, Bradley Cooper and Ronald Cartwright took advantage of the absence of a track and field meet at the Thomas A Robinson Track and Field Stadium.

#Adderley, who had already qualified in the previous meet a couple weeks ago in the shot put in the boys’ under-18 division, added the discus to his participation in Martinique with his winning throw of 42.32 metres.

#His nearest rival was Malik Stuart of Throwers Inc. with 38.00m.

#Deondre Rutherford of RC Athletics was third with 37.40m. “I was very pleased with my performance because it was a PR and a CARIFTA qualifier, so I really want to thank God, my parents and my coaches for helping me to achieve this goal,” he said.

Coaches Hold Inaugural Throwers All-Comers Meet At Cob

Tuesday, January 21, 2014

#WITH no local track and field meet being held at the Thomas A Robinson Track and Field Stadium over the weekend, a group of coaches took advantage of the break to hold the inaugural Throwers All-Comers Meet at the College of the Bahamas on Saturday.

#The meet, organised by Corrington Maycock, Ronald Cartwright and Bradley Cooper, attracted some 45 competitors who competed in the U-16, U-18, U-20 and open divisions. The meet was put on by the coaches to help establish the development in the throws area. Only throwers competed.

#Highlighting the performances were a number of Carifta qualifying feats produced by some of the throwers.

#Brashae Wood of Club Monica won the U-18 girls shot put with 13.77 metres, surpassing the Carifta mark of 12.00m and she did the same in the discus with 38.05m. The Carifta standard is 34.50m.

#Serena Brown of Thrower Inc got second in the U-18 shot put with a heave of 13.06m and the discus with 33.14m, which were both just shy of the Carifta qualifying marks.

#Tiffany Hanna of Xtreme Athletics got third in the U-18 girls shot put with 12.40m.

#On the boys’ side, Perry Adderley of the Road Runners won the U-18 boys shot put with 15.55m to produce a Carifta qualifier. The standard is 14.10m. Khyle Higgs of the College of the Bahamas won the U-20 men’s discus with 48.56m to also go under the Carifta standard of 47.40m.

#These athletes join Denzel Pratt of Club Monica, who qualified in the U-20 men’s javelin at the T-Bird Flyers Track Meet.

#There were a lot of outstanding performances as well from up and coming throwers like Edward Kemp (RC Athletics), who won all three of the U-16 boys events, Tiffany Hanna (Xtreme Athletics), Tahj’Nee Thurston (RC Athletics), Malik Stuart (Throwers Inc), and Terrieko Stevens (Throwers Inc).

#“I think we will once again dominate the Caribbean in the throws like we did in the 70s and 80s,” Maycock said. “This meet was the first time any thrower club meet allowed six throws per event other than Carifta Trials or the Nationals.

#“All club meets do not allow throwers to take that much attempts.

#“This meet will be held every year going forward and we hope it can develop into something huge later. We saw lots of happy throwers, parents and spectators who enjoyed being up close to the action.”

#The next throwing meet is scheduled for 9am February 8 at the COB field. At this time, Maycock said they will have seven age group categories with the turbo Jav and the softball throw will be implemented.

#The Bahamian public is invited to come out and support the event, which will be free of charge.
