P-NG Team For Jamaica

p. 9 · Read in the full issue

OAPUA-NEW GUINEA will send A a team of four to the Com monwealth Games in Jamaica next year. The president of the P-NG Commonwealth and Empire Games Association, Mr. Les Michel, said in Port Moresby in November the Territory could not send a bigger team because it was planning to send a big team to the South Pacific Games in Noumea, four months after the Jamaica Games.

He said it would probably cost £2,000 to send the team of four to Jamaica. The Territory sent a team of 27 to the 1962 Empire Games in Perth, and won a bronze medal for boxing.
