IMPOSING SIX-FOOTER Chemyne Alleyne has been omitted from the Barbados netball team due to compete at next month’s World Youth Netball Championship in Glasgow, Scotland.
Lodge School student Alleyne, a starting shooter all season in tandem with Shannon Hackett in the under-21 trials squad that competed in Division One as Phoenix Gems, has made it only to the reserve squad.
The Alleyne/Hackett combination started at the under-16 level, where Alleyne was the vice captain of the Barbados team, and the partnership continued at Carlton and then Gems.
Hackett leads a quartet of current and former Graydon Sealy students who made the final 12, with Tyneisha Rowe and Vanessa Reid-Cox of C.O. Williams Rangers and six-footer Shonica Wharton of the Gems lso being selected.
