THE Bahamas' "newest and youngest" Olympians returned home with renewed interest of improving in their sports after spending the past two weeks at the inaugural Youth Olympics in Singapore.

The athletes, accompanied by the majority of the team officials, were welcomed home on Saturday in the VIP Lounge of the Lynden Pindling International Airport by executives from the Bahamas Olympic Committee.

They got two medals in track and field from Tynia Gaither and Rashad Brown, two of the eight athletes that competed, along with the two swimmers and one judo competitor.

BOC president Wellington Miller thanked the athletes for representing the Bahamas with "pride, grace, dignity and success" at the history-making event.
