Sports Hall beginning at 11am with the Royston Siland-led defending champs, Neal and Massy Group of Companies aiming to defend their title.
Host of the event, VP Update’s Vijay Panday, told Kaieteur Sport yesterday that the tournament is expected to be more intense this year since it has been growing over the years. He said that he anticipates a smooth and timely corporate competition today.
Before Neal and Massy won the title, the Lugard Mohan-led Guyana Power and Light Company (GPL) had staked its claim in 2010. However, Panday informed that GPL will not be among the competing teams this year, but there were other additions.
He said that Geddes Grant returns to the event and will battle against the many other companies scheduled to compete. Bosai Minerals, National Insurance Scheme, Guyana Geology and Mines Commission and Guyana Defence Force are among the teams to compete.
Panday informed that Digicel, Giftland OfficeMax, White Castle Fish Shop, Hinds and Vaughn Accountancy, Sonic Boom and Wildfire Entertainment are among the main sponsors of the 2012 Inter-Organisation Basketball Competition.
He added that the National Sports Commission and Director of Sport, Neil Kumar have offered their support for the event as well. Panday believes that the event will continue to be a calendar event promoting a healthy lifestyle among the corporate community.
