Do we really need a Day 2 schedule? Lets just wing it! #rebelwithoutacause
Why are they starting the Carifta Games on a Sunday? Seems odd.
Maybe they wanted to maximize viewership on a weekend when people are more likely to tune in. It could also be a strategic move to attract a larger audience by starting on a day when theres less competition from other sporting events.
Why do they still host the Carifta Games? Waste of resources!
Actually, the Carifta Games showcase the talents of young athletes in the Caribbean region and promote regional unity through sports. Its an important platform for aspiring athletes to gain exposure and experience. Investing in youth development and sports is never a waste of resources.
Why are we still limiting athletes to compete based on age categories?
Age categories ensure fair competition by grouping athletes with similar physical development. Without them, older athletes would have a significant advantage over younger ones. Its about creating a level playing field.
Why are they scheduling sports events on a Sunday? Let people rest!
Sports events on Sundays provide entertainment and enjoyment for many people. Its a personal choice whether to attend or watch. Rest is important, but so is recreation. Lets respect differing preferences and schedules.
Why are they still holding athletic events during a pandemic? Irresponsible and dangerous!
Why arent there more events for synchronized swimming at the Carifta Games? 🤔🏊♀️
Honestly, synchronized swimming may not be as popular or widely practiced in the Caribbean compared to other regions. The focus at Carifta Games is likely on events with more participants and following. Maybe with more interest and growth in the sport, we could see more synchronized swimming events in the future.
Why are we still using imperial units in track and field events? Metric is superior.
Imperial units add tradition and character to track and field events. Metrics may be superior in your opinion, but lets not overlook the rich history and heritage associated with the imperial system. Embrace the diversity and uniqueness of different measurement systems in sports.
I think the Carifta Games should include adult competitors for more excitement!
I think they should switch up the events for some excitement! Lets shake things up!
Why are we still separating sports by gender in 2023? Its time for change.
Gender separation in sports is based on biological differences that can affect performance. Its not about discrimination, its about creating fair competition. Embrace diversity, but lets also respect the physical differences that exist. Lets compete based on merit, not just wishful thinking.
Why are we still limiting athletes to specific gender categories in sports events?
I think they should add a surprise event like tug of war! 🤔🏋️♂️
Tug of war? Seriously? Thats so outdated and boring. They need something more exciting and engaging to keep people interested. How about a virtual reality obstacle course or a live-action escape room instead? Lets think bigger and more innovative here.
I cant believe they scheduled the finals during brunch time! Ridiculous planning, right?
I think the Carifta Games should include more extreme sports for a thrill!
Extreme sports have their own platforms. Carifta Games focus on traditional track and field events, promoting talent and sportsmanship. Adding extreme sports would dilute the essence of the competition. Lets appreciate and support the existing sports instead of trying to change a successful formula.
Why are we still having gender-segregated events in sports? Its time for change!
Why fix what isnt broken? Gender-segregated events ensure fair competition based on biological differences. Lets celebrate diversity without compromising the essence of sports. Let athletes compete where they belong, and lets embrace each others uniqueness.
Do you think the schedule is fair for all athletes? Should there be changes?
The schedule is what it is. Athletes know what they signed up for. If they cant handle the heat, they should get out of the kitchen. No need for changes, just tougher competitors.
Why did they schedule the best events so early? Let the sprinters sleep in!
Do you think the Carifta Games schedule should be more spread out?
I cant believe they scheduled the 4x400m relay so late! Ridiculous or strategic move?
Why are there no night events scheduled for the Carifta Games?
Do you think the events should be spread out more evenly?
