Gregory Gaskin Memorial/Sentinel Security Sports Award nominations opened
The Rose Hall Town Youth and Sports Club (RHTY&SC) Awards Committee has opened nominations for the 2nd Annual Gregory Gaskin Memorial/Sentinel Security Berbice Sports Award.
The main aim of this initiative is to recognize and honour outstanding Berbicians who performed with excellence in sports over the past year.
Four persons would be rewarded this year; Berbice Male Sportsperson of the year, Berbice Female Sportsperson of the year, Berbice Sports Personality of the year and Berbice Sports Association of the year.
The awards are being sponsored by Mrs. Noreen Gaskin, widow of the late CEO of Cops Security, Gregory Gaskin. The club is inviting nominations from the general public, the media based in Berbice and most importantly the different Berbice Sports organisations especially those responsible for cricket, softball cricket, football, basketball, volleyball, athletics, tennis, cycling and chess.
All nominations should be accompanied by a complete record of the nominee’s performances during the last year. The RHT&SC wishes to state that no sportsperson who was disciplined during the period under review (January 2013 to May 2014) would be considered especially those involved in the use of illegal drugs.
Nominations can be sent to the RHTY&SC Office at the Area ‘H’ Ground, Rose Hall Town or by email to Secretary/CEO Hilbert Foster on 337 4562 or email at foster_hilbert@yahoo.com for more information.
West Indies Test player Veerasammy Permaul and lawn tennis female champion Carol Humphrey were the inaugural male and female sports awardees. Football organizer Neil Humphrey received the Sports Personality award while Berbice Cricket Board took home the Sports Association of the year award. The deadline for submission of nominations is Friday June 20, 2014.
