The OECS Sports Desk organizes or finds sponsorship for a number of sporting events. The OECS Track and Field Championships were perhaps the OECS event with the highest pro- file and although athletes from the member countries obtained major individual success after the de- mise of the meet the absence of the competition has left a void in the regional development programme. The countries which comprise the OECS include four from the Windward Islands- Domini- ca,Grenada, St. Lucia, and St Vincent and the Grenadines; and five from the Leeward Islands – Antigua and Barbuda, St Kitts and Nevis, Montserrat, the British Virgin Islands and Anguilla.
