 After a sustained period, we found adequate lighting at the VG Multipurpose Sports Complex. Users of the facility braved a sigh of relief following the commissioning of upgraded lighting at the venue. The Ministry of Youth Development and Sports held a brief ceremony Tuesday evening to officially switch to the new LED lighting. As a Minister for Youth Development and Sports, I can say that I'm very happy to see that we have LED lights at the VG Sports Complex. Of course, the VG Sports Complex is really a breeding ground for talent development in the sports of basketball, netball, volleyball, etc. So I think as a Minister you really want to give young people the opportunity to have training sessions beyond six o'clock in the evening so that they can hone in on their talents and continue to develop. And I think it's very important for us to replicate what we've done here throughout St. Lucia. LED lights as we know is more universally friendly. It's a greener form of lighting. And of course we have to continue to ensure that we reduce on our carbon footprint. And so we have a Ministry along with a PS that is committed to ensuring that we continue to do our best to use alternative forms of energy around St. Lucia to ensure that we reduce our bills as well and continue to develop sports on Ireland. Director of Sports, James Xavier, expressed optimism. The improved lighting will bring athletes back to the courts of the complex. What we witnessed this evening was switching on the lights at the VG Multipurpose Sports Complex. As you may know, the lights have been down for a considerable amount of time and so the young people were not exposed, were not able to use the facility during the evening. But we are happy that we are able to put on the lights this evening and so we can ensure that the programs would go on not just during the day because a number of persons are duly employed and may not be able to train during the day but can come during the evening and enjoy the facility. Basketball coach of the East Coast Academy, Glenn Geese, who runs a program at the complex was heartened by the improved lighting provided. Very happy to see lights back at the complex after so long. I mean now we could resume evening training. Our sessions could be, our programs could be set a bit better now because we have a bit more time to work and at least catch those who are coming off work in the afternoon to get the programs going, especially the national training. Some people have to come all the way from the south to get any evening for practice so it works out well for us at Basketball. The VG Multipurpose Sports Complex has been a major venue for court games such as basketball, volleyball and netball and has hosted a number of major regional sporting events.
