President Bridgewater continued, “Ms. Byron-Nero brings additional value gained from her extended participation at national, regional and international levels as an active athlete and as a representative and advocate in the Board Rooms; plus her professional knowledge, skills and competencies. These are attributes of which the SKNOC expects to take full advantage”.
