Sports In Grenada

The seven-island nation of Grenada is situated in the southeast Caribbean Sea. Grenada enjoys cricket, just like the majority of the nations in the region, including Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. In actuality, Grenada and its Caribbean neighbors have developed a quite ferocious rivalry. Devon Smith, a star cricketer from the Caribbean who represents the West Indies, was born in Hermitage, Grenada. In Grenada, tennis and aquatic sports are also very popular.

Since 1984, Grenada has also competed in every Summer Olympic Games. Despite being a relatively tiny nation, Grenada has been successful in winning an Olympic medal. Kirani James won a gold medal at the London 2012 Summer Olympics in the men's 400-meter race, not just an Olympic medal. James has also received other accolades for Grenada, such as a run of gold medals at the CARIFTA Games and the Commonwealth Youth Games. In the 2009 World Youth Championships, he was also the first runner to complete the 200/400 double. In 2010, he won the title of World Junior Champion.
