World record and Olympic record holder Usain Bolt will be making his return to the Olympic stage in London later this summer. With him are some of the most talented sprinters and track stars in the world, including Asafa Powell, Yohan Blake, Michael Frater, Nesta Carter, Shelly-Ann Frase-Pryce, Kerron Stewart and Sherrone Simpson. One of the reasons why Jamaica is a perennial threat in track and field is the country's Inter-Secondary Schools Boys and Girls Championships, or Champs, where high-school students compete in an Olympic-style competition in Jamaica's capital, Kingston.
