KN dated Sat. Sept. 2 reads of the following reasons U.S.-based Miss Kadecia Baird’s representation of Guyana might not be possible at the Under-23 South American Championships, slated for Sao Paulo, Brasil:
Clashes with her schooling, two months prior notice is required, and attending the meet is not feasible.

SN dated Sept. 4 penned a similar story.

It is quite evident that Guyana has just failed to cross the very first hurdle towards Rio 2016 as regards this young, up-and-coming track potential hopefully representing the Golden Arrowhead. This is absolutely no fault of Miss Baird’s.
The fact of the matter is that it matters not how many sporting events Guyana has slated for representation, we have to accept the fact that the final word from her current U.S. coach and other responsible persons in her camp looking over her welfare, makes the decision when she is available.
That’s a crystal-clear indication to me that Guyana is more or less powerless.

I am once again saying that when Miss Baird uplifts her citizenship of the USA, global status and stardom could only be achieved should an avenue open up for her to compete under the U.S. flag.

It is also my belief that there are responsible persons surrounding her in the U.S. camp, and only with the guidance of those persons will she grow much healthier.

Your’s faithfully
