Freeport , Bahamas - Join us for the first ever Bahamas Law Enforcement Sports Challenge, an ‘Olympic Games’-style  International Sports Event event for Law Enforcement (including Police, Fire & Border Control officers).
 
This 5-day event, starting on January 18th, 2012 and headed by Ms. Shawn Thomas, has garnered the support of The Bahamas’ Ministry of Tourism & Aviation, and Ministry of National Security as well as the United States Embassy, the Florida Police & Fire Games, and Bahamas Celebration (including discounted rates for travel during that time). Talks are also underway with The Bahamas’ Ministers of Education, and Youth, Sports & Culture. The event will be hosted by Grand Lucayan Resort.

Online registration is open, and can be accessed by:

In a similar vein to the World Police & Fire Games, recently held in New York City, the Bahamas Law Enforcement Games will encompass a wide variety of sporting events that will test the physical & mental athletic skills of the competitors. Sporting events will include – among others – basketball, soccer, football, boxing, softball, and open-water swimming. Awards for various competitions will be named in honor of local legends in the respective field. Proposed honorees include Gladstone ‘Moon’ McPhee’ for his contributions to basketball, and Jimmy Lee for his contributions to softball.
