The government of Dominica has announced the appointment of Treneese Hamilton and Stephan Pascal as Sports Ambassadors in honor of their notable accomplishments and contributions to sports.<\/p>\n

Starting from September 1, 2025, Treneese Hamilton will assume the role of Sports Ambassador for Dominica. The Office of the Prime Minister stated via press release that as part of her appointment, she will be provided with a housing lot and issued a Diplomatic Passport to support her international travel while representing the nation. Hamilton achieved a historic milestone for Dominica by winning its first-ever Gold Medal at the Junior Pan American Games held in Paraguay, with a record-setting throw of 17.21 meters in the women\u2019s shot put event.<\/p>\n

Stephan Pascal, says the government, will take on the position of Youth Sports Ambassador, also beginning September 1, 2025. In addition to his ambassadorial duties, he will receive a monthly stipend aimed at assisting with expenses related to his cricketing career. Pascal made history as the first Dominican to captain a West Indies Cricket Team, leading the West Indies Under-19 squad during the 2024 ICC Youth Cricket World Cup in South Africa.<\/p>\n

According to the government, these appointments and their associated benefits are part of this administration’s broader strategy to recognize and support young athletes, fostering their development as role models and providing opportunities for excellence.<\/p>\n

The government of Dominica also extended its congratulations to Ms. Hamilton and Mr. Pascal on their remarkable achievements and expressed anticipation of their continued success in their respective fields.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The government of Dominica has announced the appointment of Treneese Hamilton and Stephan Pascal as Sports Ambassadors in honor of their notable accomplishments and contributions to sports.
