Association to create the Official Team Uniform and casual clothing

Light weight and fashionable these uniforms arouse a sense of patriotism
featuring the Flying fish, and Blue and Gold glory. On the Podium,

While exploring Athens, the Olympians will cool and comfortable
in their white T-shirt with the Barbados Olympic logo on the chest,
Barbados Royal 80/20 Kanga Hoody, and Jersey Shorts.
