Justice Patrick Robinson, author of the book ‘Jamaican Athletics … a model for 2012 and the world,’ has called for the establishment of an athletic museum to celebrate the achievements of the country’s athletes, their coaches and administrators.

“I believe that what we have achieved in Beijing was not the culmination of our athletic prowess and dominance, but a high point. We have the ability to go beyond this and the museum would seek to motivate both present and future athletes towards the achievement of excellence,” added the author.
