Kaieteur Sports – The Guyana Badminton Association (GBA) continues their development drive via their Shuttle-time programme with New Amsterdam Multilateral Secondary and the Guyana School of Agriculture (GSA) being the latest beneficiaries.
Both Priyanna and Emily Ramdhani have been spearheading the drive along with the support of the GBA.
The recent donations of badminton equipment is a part of the GBA’s Shuttle-time project, which is geared towards spreading the sport across the Diaspora while encouraging more Guyanese to become involved with badminton.
Representatives of the New Amsterdam Secondary school hailed the GBA for the recent donations, stating that, “Support goes beyond the tangible items; it symbolizes a commitment to fostering sports and wellness in our educational community. Emily Ramdhani’s dedication to promoting badminton is commendable and the Guyana Badminton Association’s partnership is invaluable.”

The New Amsterdam Multilateral Secondary school recently received badminton equipment from the GBA as part of their Shuttle-time programme.
The gesture is set to resonate as a part of the enthusiasm and skill development of students. Together, the move enhances the opportunities for students, thus creating a positive ripple effect that extends far beyond the sports.
Another huge step through the Shuttle-time Programme is the inclusion of the GSA, who will now have an opportunity to promote the game.
The GBA is also expected to visit the Agriculture School where they plan to spike off some coaching sessions while formally introducing the game to the students.
