OYMPIANS Kierre Beckles and Ramon Gittens are among four Barbadians listed to compete at the Bermuda Invitational Permit Athletics Meet at the National Sports Centre tomorrow.

Hurdler Beckles and sprinter Gittens will be joined by half-miler Anthonio Mascoll as they aim to qualify for the IAAF World Championships in London, August 4-13.

Also on the final list of entries released by the Bermuda National Athletics Association this week is Sada Williams, who met the qualifying standard in the 200 metres for the Worlds at the National Championships last Sunday when she clocked 22.80 seconds.

Gittens missed the Nationals after picking up an injury running the 100 metres at the recent Salute to Usain Bolt meet in Jamaica. (EZS)
