National Training Center construction begins with foundation works
Initial works by sub-contractor 
M. Nabi and Sons on the Guyana Football Federation’s (GFF) National Training Center’s venue at Providence on the East Bank of Demerara have commenced with the site being cleared and landfill for foundation works, as scheduled. M. Nabi and Son’s were awarded a sub-contract by the company responsible for the construction of the facility, Holland based, Greenfields, a manufacturer of artificial turf.
Phase one of the venture is projected to be completed around January 18th to 31st, 2018 and will include the pitch being laid with an artificial turf, lights, goal posts and everything needed for a playable facility. Upon completion of all the phases, the training center will be Guyana’s first and major state-of-the-art football facility, which will seek to produce consistent levels of competitive football regionally and internationally.
The facility will cater for football development among both males and females and will be the focal point for the sport at all levels of the game.
During a media interaction yesterday at the Providence venue, head of the GFF, Wayne Forde, stated that he was positive that the project would be completed by January 2018 and only bad weather can throw the schedule off since all systems are in place.
