The Trinidad and Tobago Olympic Committee (TTOC) will be represented by Olympian Leah Bertrand and Jordon Reynos at the IV Continental Athletes’ Forum, scheduled for October 12–14, 2026, in Costa Rica.
Hosted by Panam Sports and Olympic Solidarity, the forum will bring together athlete representatives from across the continent to engage in discussions on matters affecting athletes and their role within the Olympic Movement.
Bertrand and Reynos were selected by the TTOC Athletes’ Commission to represent Trinidad and Tobago at the forum.
