Veteran coach Maurice Wilson will be missing from the team of officials for Jamaica at the IAAF World Indoor Championships this weekend in Birmingham.
Wilson, who has served as technical director for the Jamaican team at major championships and Olympics for the past five years, had prior obligations as acting principal of the GC Foster College and is unable to take up the appointment.
The team, which departs on Wednesday, will have the experienced Fitz Coleman as head coach along with coaches Danny Hawthorne, Paul Francis and Michael Vassel. Michael Frater and Deon Hemmings-McCatty will serve as team managers.
In the meantime, a total of US $2.4 million is on offer from the IAAF as prize money for the championships.
There is also a US$50,000 dollar bonus on offer for any athlete setting a world record during the four-day event.
Individual gold medal winners will pocket US$40,000 with US$20,000 going to the silver medallist and the bronze medal winner taking home US$10,000.
Fourth place finishers will walk away with US$8000, while the 5th and 6th placed athletes taking home US$6000 and US$4000 respectively.
The breakdown is similar for the relays.
