He seems to bring out the best in Jah-Nhai.” I’m always confident when Brian Wellman is there with him. “It was important he got a good first jump in. “I looked at the line-up and said to him, ‘There’s no reason why you can’t get on the podium’. “I’ve had Jah-Nhai with me for a long time, since I was the president. Watching Perinchief win bronze was understandably among the highlights for Raynor, the former Bermuda National Athletics Association president. It was a young team, and for some, it was their first international competition. “The team’s camaraderie was the best I’ve been involved in. “We’ve had the swimmers reaching semi-finals, and Kaden Hopkins’s performances in the cycling were unreal. “It’s been a fantastic Games for Bermuda, especially winning two medals!” Raynor told Bernews.
