Lawrence Assanah
Kaieteur News – Guyana Defence Force Warrant Officer Lawrence Assanah has been appointed Chairman of the Guyana Boxing Association executive. Assanah, a AIBA certified One Star referee, received the appointment yesterday at a meeting between GBA president Steve Ninvalle and members of the R/J Commission.
The army officer has taken over from fellow One Star Ramona Agard and will hold the position for two years. One of the most promising referees in CARICOM, Assanah was successful at the One Start exams in 2017 in St Lucia and is tipped to be elevated to Two Star once those exams are available.
Steve Ninvalle
At yesterday’s meeting Ninvalle thanked Agard for her stewardship over the years which he claimed was of a very high standard. The GBA president informed those present that it would not be business as usual as recently elected AIBA President Umar Kremlev is “a body in motion” and wants to see results.
Assanah will meet with the executive of the GBA later this week to assist with the appointment of the Vice Chairman and three other members of the commission.
