Griffith in brief remarks stated that for quite a while he was in search for a programme to make a positive contribution that will be impacting and after seeing and reading about the
Namilco Football Festival and what the financial gains derived do for the Tucville ground and the Fruta Conquerors Club he decided that making a contribution to the Festival is the right thing.
Thompson in return said that he is extremely pleased to hear that the club has been identified as one that is making a positive contribution to the development of youths and by extension the society at large, adding that Griffith’s gesture and interest shown is timely and very encouraging.
