Lloyd to Represent Antigua and Barbuda at World Indoor Championships
National female record holder, Joella Lloyd will be the lone representative for Antigua and Barbuda at the 2025 World Indoor Championships in Nanjiing, China.
Lloyd who clocked a season’s best of 7.13 seconds in Gainesville, Florida last month will compete in the Women’s 60m dash.
The event will run on Saturday at 11:15 AM Nanjing time.
A standout sprinter, Lloyd has long been a key figure in Antigua and Barbuda’s athletics scene.
