Promising teenage sprinter goes professional

Promising Jamaican teenage sprinter Sachin Dennis has signed with the Andisportsmanagement Group to go professional.

The news was broken on Thursday afternoon on the Marvin Anderson-led Andisportsmanagement team's official instagram page.

Anderson, a sprint relay silver medallist from the 2007 World Championships, noted in the post that he was looking forward to guiding the number one ranked Jamaican male sprinter over 100 metres.

When contacted, Anderson confirmed that the 19-year-old Dennis who has a personal best of 10.15 seconds done in May last year, is being coached by respected young sprint coach Reynaldo Walcott at Elite Performance Track Club.

Walcott, who has been coaching 4-time World Championships 100m gold medallist Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce since 2020, previously guided Dennis' development at St Elizabeth Technical, as Dennis won titles in all classes at the ISSA Grace Kennedy Boys’ and Girls’ Championships.
