GEO ROLLE SELECTED FOR WEST INDIES TRIALS

Geo Rolle, 19 yrs of age, of Grand Bahama has been selected to travel to Trinidad this week for trials for the West Indies 7’s Rugby Team. If selected Geo will travel around the world with the team representing the Bahamas (Caribbean) in the 2008 7’S Rugby circuit which includes the Hong Kong 7’s, San Diago 7’s and several tournaments in Europe. Geo who is 19 and works for the Freeport Container Port has been playing rugby since he was 13 and over recent years has progressed to a high level which culminated in playing for the Bahamas two weekends ago in the Caribbean 7’s held in Nassau. From his display in Nassau the West Indies selectors picked him for the trails this week. The selectors have picked a squad of 20 players of which 12 will be selected for the West Indies team who will play the Trinidad sevens this weekend as a final tryout for the final selection. Geo wishes to thank The Freeport Container Port for their understanding in giving him time of work and we all hope Geo makes the team and can represent Grand Bahama and The Bahamas on the world stage.
