Neufville, who represented Calabar High and Jamaica in both the long and triple jumps, was a jumps and sprints coach at both his alma mater and the newly-formed Legacy.
“Our hearts are in pieces right now at the untimely passing of our beloved coach,” Hardware told
Loop News.
“He has conditioned so many of our nation s young athletes who have gone on to do so well for themselves, and he started to make such a valuable contribution at Legacy Athletics. We pray for strength. May his memories sustain us,” said Hardware.
Calabar High will announce the formation of its track club - Legacy Athletics - on Wednesday.
Among the club s major signings are Michael Bentley, Jura Levy, Tyrek Wilson, Anthony Carpenter, Dejour Russell, Crystal Morrison, and Malik James King.
