Guyana will be represented by Brandon Cummings in the Individual Recurve category and Ravish Singh in the Individual Compound category. Both athletes have been engaged in an intensive training programme under the guidance of World Archery Level 2 Certified Coach Ryan McKinnon, who will accompany the athletes to Panama to provide technical support and mentorship throughout the Games.
The archery competition is scheduled for April 15–18, 2026, and will be held at the Estadio de Tiro con Arco at the Ciudad Deportiva Irving Saladino in Panama City.
The Games are expected to bring together more than 1,500 athletes from 15 National Olympic Committees of the Organización Deportiva Suramericana (ODESUR), representing countries including Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Paraguay, Peru, Uruguay, Venezuela, Suriname, and host nation Panama, among others. These Games serve as a major multi-sport platform for the region’s emerging athletes and promote excellence, friendship, and the Olympic spirit.
In preparation for the event, Cummings and Singh have been undertaking focused training sessions aimed at sharpening their technical execution, mental focus, and competition readiness. Their preparation reflects Archery Guyana’s continued commitment to developing athletes capable of competing at the highest regional and international levels.
The Board of Directors of Archery Guyana also wishes to express its sincere appreciation to President Godfrey Munroe and the Executive Committee of the Guyana Olympic Association for their support in facilitating the country’s participation in these Games. The Association looks forward to travelling alongside the other disciplines that will represent Guyana and proudly showcasing the nation’s talent on the international stage.
Logistical preparations for the delegation are currently being coordinated with Chef-de-Mission Ms. Carolyn Garraway, as final arrangements are made to ensure the athletes are well supported throughout the competition.
