The anticipated championship bounced off last night and will conclude tonight at the Burnham Hard Court on Middle & Carmichael Streets. The tournament will see over $500,000 in cash and prizes being doled out to the top performers, and Fireside Grill N Chill, that has been a long term supporter of sport in Guyana has sponsored the ‘Andrew Ifill’ Championship trophy.
Once again, Toney has decided to pay tribute to the late National Basketball player; Ifill, who passed away in 2019.
Ifill was considered as one of the best forwards Guyana has ever produced, and when he migrated to the Twin Island Republic of Trinidad & Tobago some 14 years ago, he became one of the best players to grace the courts on the Island.
Also joining the list of supporters is Trophy Stall, whose proprietor, Ramesh Sunich, was pleased to contribute the MVP trophy of the event.
