35 Years of Fun, Fitness & Friendship

CariFin Games is the premier corporate wellness competition for Trinidad and Tobago's financial services sector. Founded in 1991 by Wayne Roberts — building on the Central Bank Athletics Group he established in 1987 — it has grown from a small athletics community into a multi-event season involving 12 institutions and over 1,200 participants every year.

The Games bring together employees from banks, insurance companies, investment houses, credit unions and government financial institutions. Whether running the Chancellor Challenge, walking the Green Mile, representing at the Torch Relay, or burning energy at the Aerobics Burnout, every participant competes under one shared motto: Fun, Fitness and Friendship.

In 2026, CariFin celebrates its 35th anniversary under the theme Evolve. Excel. Empower. — honouring the legacy of 35 seasons while building toward the next generation of corporate wellness in the Caribbean.

The Road to Participation

Joining CariFin Games is a journey that starts from within your institution. Here is the process from first interest to race day.

1
Internal Interest
An employee, athlete or HR manager within your institution decides they want to participate in CariFin Games. They raise it internally with the HR department, building the case for why the Games would benefit their team and institution.
2
Institution Contacts CariFin
The HR department or designated representative contacts CariFin Games directly to express interest and find out more about the season, events, format, costs and what participation involves.
3
CariFin Responds with Information
CariFin provides a comprehensive information pack covering the full 2026 season — events, schedule, competitive format, health and wellness benefits, and what to expect as a participating institution.
4
Customised Proposal
CariFin prepares a customised participation package tailored to your institution — outlining the investment, benefits, event involvement, and the value of representing your organisation in T&T's premier corporate wellness competition.
5
Internal Consultation
The institution reviews the proposal internally with management and staff. The key questions: Is there enough staff interest? Does this align with our wellness and engagement goals? Is this the right investment for our team culture?
6
Agreement and Confirmation
Once the decision is made, documents are signed, participation is confirmed, and the institution submits their full participant registration list to CariFin.
7
Race Roster Registration
CariFin submits the confirmed participant list to Odessey Timing, who registers all participants on Race Roster. This ensures every athlete receives an official chip-timed result published immediately after each event — a professional, credible record of their performance.
