Trinidad and Tobago’s junior athletes wrapped up their campaign at the 2025 Carifta Athletics Championships on home soil with a total of 25 medals.
Over the course of three days, the athletes secured nine gold, six silver, and ten bronze medals—just shy of last year’s tally of 27 (four gold, 11 silver, and 12 bronze).
Trinidad and Tobago’s best finish at the regional athletics championships came in the 2005 edition, held in Tobago, when the team captured 13 gold, 14 silver, and nine bronze medals.

Jamaica finished atop the medal table with 78 medals, including 30 golds, while The Bahamas claimed 37, mirroring last year’s top three standings.
Some standout performances for Team TTO included Christopher Sammy, who claimed gold in the Boys Under-17 1,500 metres and 3,000 metres. Tobagonian junior distance runner Oshéa Cummings won gold in the Girls Under-17 1,500 metres and bronze in the 3,000 metres.
Tyrique Vincent made history by becoming the first Carifta champion in the Boys Under-20 decathlon. He amassed 6,522 points across ten events, narrowly edging out Grenada’s Jurel Clement, who earned 6,510 points for his efforts. 
Vincent’s sister, Tenique, also delivered a strong performance, winning the Girls Heptathlon Open with a total of 4,019 points.
