NAIROBI, July 11 (Xinhua) -- Kenya has not spared any efforts to make visiting teams comfortable as Nairobi hosts the final edition of the World Under-18 Championships starting July 12-16.
The organisers have secured university hostels at Kenyatta University to serve as the Athletes Village and the visiting teams have so far given thumbs up sign for the service rendered.
Algeria team manager Tarik Kessti said the youth event is not taken seriously being the elementary championships by the IAAF.
However, he lauded Kenya for taking initiative to spruce up hostels of a University, which will be used even after the championships.
"This idea of coming up with an athletes' village in the university is very good. The idea is it will be used even after the one week of the championships," he said.
For Bahamas head coach, Rudolph Ferguson, the hospitality at the hostel are great and beyond their expectations.
"The restaurant is excellent, the service is good and transport has been well coordinated. The stadium is not far away and we have all we need to have a good championship," said Ferguson.
"I have attended many championships with the Bahamas team but I have not come across one where each athlete has his own room."
