The GBA would like to express thanks to the National Sports Commission (NSC) and the Director of Sports for making this tournament possible.
On Friday afternoon the majority of the Badminton Fraternity met with the Honourable Minister Charles Ramson and the Director of Sports Steve Ninvalle (just before the start of the Junior Tournament) where the Honourable Minister highlighted the Government’s plans to build a home for Badminton at the National Racquet Centre on Woolford Avenue.
The GBA is extremely and beyond grateful for this very timely and long-awaited initiative and thanks the Government of Guyana. This facility will be shared with Table Tennis.
