A total of 115 personnel including one hundred and fifteen athletes and 36 officials will represent Jamaica in 15 sports at next month Commonwealth Games in Australia’s Gold Coast.

This will be the largest ever contingent of individual and team sports to represent the island at the event.

It will also be the first time that athletics will be incorporated with para-athletics at the games and there will also be, for the first time, an equal number of men and women’s events taking place over the 11 days.

A quota of 68 individuals was originally given to the Jamaica Olympic Associations for individual sports, however, an additional eight spots were made available, taking the total to 76. This includes athletes and technical staff.

Team Jamaica’s chef de mission will be Dalton Myers, while Antonio Bell, Kaydean Wembley and Hamlin Pagon will serve as team managers.

Official team captains and flag bearer will be named at a later date.
