You are in Barbados and you are having such a relaxing time sitting on the beach, swimming with the turtles and having some fabulous meals at the local restaurants.  Well, why not mix things up a bit and take on a game of polo?  This exciting sport is a hot favourite among locals and visitors alike.  

Barbados is just settling back to normalcy after the annual motorsport frenzy that is FLOW King of the Hill and SOL Rally Barbados. Jeffrey Panton and Michael Fennel Jr. enjoyed another successful campaign as they claimed both crowns over the course of the two weekends. The Ford Focus WRC08 packing the punch needed to hold off all comers, including current WRC2 championship leader Elfyn Evans and Crag Parry in their Ford Fiesta R5 Evo.

Barbados and the wider Caribbean are riding high off the back of an unprecedented 3 simultaneous ICC World Twenty20 cricket titles won recently in India by our Men, Women & Under 19 cricket teams. The underlying vibe across the region is one of Champions and underscored by the instant DJ Bravo hit soundtrack of the same name. This winning feeling and attitude means a lot to our proud people, and it translates into better interactions across all levels of business and social interaction.

The Barbados Hotel and Tourism Association hosted a golf fund raising event at the prestigious Apes Hill Golf Club on Friday 20th November 2015.  The event was in aid of scholorships for five Barbadians in the tourism industry to pursue higher studies.  The event attracted 19 teams from the local BHTA member community and Barbados Villa Services proudly sponsored a team consisting of Geoff Moss, Joe Troulan, Mike King and Phil Thomas.  While the prizes eluded the team by a couple of points it was a day filled with good fun and great sportsmanship.
