Castries (St. Lucia), July 16 (IANS/CMC): St. Lucia has announced its biggest team ever to take part in this month's XX Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, Scotland.
Levern Spencer, the 2010 women's high jump bronze medallist, will lead a 32-member St. Lucia outfit which also includes the national netball team - signaling this country's first Commonwealth Games participation in a team sport, reports CMC.
Chef de Mission Teddy Matthews says St.Lucia team will compete in athletics, boxing, netball, shooting, swimming and table tennis.
