KINGSTON, Jamaica—Sports Minister Olivia Grange has congratulated Jamaica’s Bobsleigh teams, who have qualified for the 2026 Winter Olympic Games.

“Jamaica’s winter athletes continue to do impressive things. Our bobsleigh teams are consistent qualifiers for the Olympics and must now be seen as real contenders, especially after their recent exploits in Canada,” said the minister in a media release on Tuesday.

According to the ministry, Jamaica will have at least three teams at the Milano Cortina Games: a two-man team, a four-man team and a women’s monobob. The two-man team will come from Nimroy Turgott, Joel Fearon and Junior Harris, while Andrae Dacres, Junior Harris, Tyquendo Tracey and Joel Fearon form the four-man team.

The women’s monobob features Mica Moore.

The Jamaican two-woman team is ranked as first alternate and will also participate if another country withdraws from the Games.

Minister Grange described the Bobsleigh teams’ qualification for the Olympics as “another incredible achievement in Jamaica’s sports history.”

Jamaica defeated their hosts in November at the International Bobsleigh and Skeleton Federation’s North American Cup to win the island’s first gold medal at an international bobsleigh competition.

The 2026 Winter Olympics begins on February 6.
