St Kitts and Nevis: The Minister of Sports Samal Duggins along with Prime Minister Dr Terrance Drew conducted a walkthrough through the Conaree Football Stadium on Wednesday, November 29, 2024.
Minister Samal Duggins shared the glimpses of their visit on his official social media account and expressed his delight on seeing the progress of the stadium.
Sharing the pictures of the stadium, the Sports Minister noted that he is beyond pleased to announce that this project is no longer “coming soon” but rather “on the way.”
Minister Duggins emphasised on the fact that the St Kitts and Nevis Labour Party (SKNLP) led administration is committed to delivering results and not just making promises. He noted that this state-of-the-art facility will soon stand as a testament to the dedication for the development of sports and empowerment of communities in St Kitts and Nevis.
The sports minister and football stadium authority urged the citizens to stay tuned for the grand reveal of the project as they advance towards progress.
Significantly, the new stadium will feature new developments such as the ramps for people who use wheelchairs for their easy access.
Back in July, Prime Minister Terrance Drew posted updates of the long-promised football stadium which proved to be a great source of employment for construction workers.
Notably, the ground breaking ceremony of the Conaree Football Stadium was held on April 10, 2024 and has now reached near completion.
The government had promised the members of the community that they would construct a football stadium in the community. The space would be used to host the league matches for the St. Kitts and Nevis Football Association. It is also to be noted that the project would help in nurturing the interest of youngsters of the country into the sports sector.
