The Ministry of Sports has extended congratulations to the successful local badminton players following impressive showings in recent tournaments.
In a release, the ministry highlighted the efforts of the players and the Guyana Badminton Association. Here is the full text of the release:
“The fact that the Guyana Badminton team which recently represented Guyana in the Dominican Republic and Canada was comprised of under-11 to Uder-15 boys and female players should indicate that Guyana’s successful future is assured in this sport.”
“Between July 22 and 29 last in Alberta, Canada and in Dominican Republic, August 19 to 27, Guyana’s small framed but big minded, skillful and dedicated Badminton players keep the Golden Arrowhead flying amongst world class competition at those Under 11, Under 15 levels. Their bravado determined spirit to compete for themselves and Guyana resulted in triumph and medals.
Against those reflections, the Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sport wishes to congratulate Badminton teams that brought some amount of Glory to the Greenland of Guyana. We do this on behalf of all sports loving Guyanese. The Ministry salutes little Priyanna Ramdhani for her Golds and Silvers in the Dominican Republic as well as Narayan, Cindy and Omari who all won medals at that tournament.”
“The Ministry notes that in July, Guyana was the only CARICOM Country to compete in the 21st Pan American Badminton Championships in Alberta, with Priyanna Ramdhani again keeping our Golden Arrowhead aloft.
The Guyana Badminton Association is to be commended, along with Guyana Olympic Association, for its year long structured programmes and tournaments which keep our badminton players trained and ready to compete successfully. Congratulations Again.”
