Government provides funds to National Volleyball team
Sports Minister Nicolette Henry presents the $400,000 cheque to GVF President John Flores at her Main Street Office yesterday.
Nicolette Henry, Junior Minister within the Ministry of Education with responsibility for Sports yesterday presented a cheque for $400,000 Guyana dollars to President of the Guyana Volleyball Federation (GVF) John Flores to assist with the airfare to Brazil for the 15-member National Volleyball team.
Minister Henry said the contribution was for air tickets for team members to travel to Brazil for the upcoming CSV Male indoor Championship slated for Maceio, Brazil from September 27 to October 5.
Flores thanked the Guyana Government for its contribution which he said should go a long way in helping with the cost of the trip and promised the Minister that the team will give of their best in Brazil. A return air ticket to Brazil costs approximately US$1,200.
Last Thursday the Reds Perreira foundation presented $200,000 Guyana dollars to Flores to assist with the trip.
