The Guyana Badminton Association (GBA) is very grateful for the assistance from the GOA to help move the sport to higher levels.
The GBA is amazed that Guyana’s top athletes still have to struggle to gain sponsorship for top and world ranked athletes to date especially when the main factor is that the Golden Arrowhead flies in the International arenas. We do hope in the future that the entities responsible for sports and also the interested private sector can understand why it is necessary to be involved with Sports and the mileage it can give them.
This Tournament will be the first of a series of international tournaments Guyana will be taking part in and the players will get Higher World Ranking Points.
These two players just won the first local doubles tournament for the year at the Gumdac Open Doubles last week and is not new in the international arena. They also medaled in the Caribbean Games last year in Singles & Doubles.
They are currently in training for this Peru International where they are expected to do well in both the Boys Singles and Boys Doubles Events.
The GBA would like to also than the Director of Sports, Mr. Christopher Jones and the NSC for their contribution, Mr. Wayne Kanhai of Yellow Mining and Mr. David Fernandes of Bounty Farms.
