Faculty of Sport (FoS) https://uwi.edu/sport/

The St Augustine Academy of Sport welcomed its third cohort of students and saw a slight uptick in its overall enrolment. The Faculty continued cross-campus teaching between the Mona and St Augustine campuses using the Moodle platform. Sporting activities at the Academy were severely limited by the restrictions imposed in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Signature events, like the UWI Half Marathon and T20 cricket tournaments, could not be held, and some facilities experienced maintenance issues.
