Trophy Stall empowers Berbice basketball by sponsoring tournament
– in association with the RHTY&SC
The recently resuscitated Berbice Amateur Basketball Association (BABA) vision for the upliftment and development of the game in the Ancient County has received a major boost with The Trophy Stall of Bourda Market and the Rose Hall Town Youth and Sports Club (RHTY&SC) joining hands to sponsor a tournament for youths.
Only recently the RHTY&SC donated a set of basketballs and other items to the BABA and this sponsorship represents a commitment to assist with the development of sport.
Trophy Stall’s Ms. Petra Badree (right) hands over the trophies to BABA Secretary, Ms. Petal Forde.
Club Secretary/CEO Hilbert Foster who approached Managing Director of the Trophy Stall, Mr. Ramesh Sunich for a donation of trophies, stated that he was quite impressed with the vision of the BABA recently elected President Keith Myers and Secretary Petra Forde.
The club has made a commitment to work along with both executive members to ensure that they fulfill their mandate.
Foster stated that the RHTY&SC would only work along with organizations which have visionary and honest leadership. He urged the BABA to work beyond the call of duty to develop the game.
Managing Director of Trophy Stall Ramesh Sunich remarked that he was willing to assist once the RHTY&SC would have recommended the BABA.
The Trophy Stall, Sunich proudly noted is a major contributor to the development of all sports in Guyana and he was proud to work along with the RHTY&SC to continue that commitment in the Ancient County.
Trophies were donated for the winning and runner-up teams as well as the MVP of the finals. The RHTY&SC contributed prizes for the members of the winning team.
BABA Secretary Petra Forde expressed gratitude to Mr. Sunich and Mr. Foster for their kind gesture to assist the recently elected body and pledged that the tournament would be well organised.
Forde stated that the BABA was very grateful to the RHTYSC for its contribution to the development of the game and issued an appeal to other organisations and business entities to support the development of basketball.
