Saluting Ted Gray
There will be an awards presentation for the Ted Gray Award Recipient for this event. Coach Ted Gray, born April 15th 1934 worked with us here in Jamaica over 50 years.

He is the only coach in this hemisphere that has won so many medals, including Olympic Bronze.

He was recruited by the Jamaican sports federation to train the national cycling team. For over five decades, he dedicated his efforts to the Jamaican cyclists. In the late 1960s and early 1970s, he became the inaugural coach for the Jamaican National Cycling Team.

His impact is felt, to this day, not just with Coach Peter here in Jamaica, but throughout the Caribbean. He was one of the greatest coaches you could ever wish to meet.

Gray is the only coach to have won numerous cycling medals for Jamaica. He coached Peter Aldridge, who, under his tutelage, competed in the Summer Olympics in Moscow in 1980, Los Angeles in 1984, and Seoul, Korea, in 1988. At the Central American and Caribbean (CAC) Games, Aldridge clinched a gold medal, and at the Pan Am Games, a bronze.
