East Coast youths benefit from MCY&S football camp
Several youths in the Mahaicony area are benefiting from a junior football camp being run by the Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sport in conjunction with Abu Huriarah.
National Sports Commission football coach Dennis `Chow’ Hunte is conducting the clinics which in two days has attracted 60 youths.
Parliamentary Secretary in the Ministry Steve Ninvalle said yesterday that Hunte started working in Mahaicony on Monday and will concluded his camp, which caters for both male and females, on Friday.
The camp will place emphasis on the basics of football. Ninvalle said that the 11 to 14 year olds will be taught: ball control, heading, receiving, passing and shooting. A similar five-day camp will be held in Blairmont from next Monday.
Hunte has done similar exercises in Agricola, Mahdia and Linden and is earmarked to continue on the Corentyne and in Lethem where an Inter Block football competition will be held in September.
The camps, Ninvalle explained, is part of the Ministry’s plan to develop football at the grass root level across the length and breath of Guyana as is the Ministry’s Inter Block football programme.
