The newly-elected Executive Council of the Guyana Olympic Association (GOA) offered support to the Guyana Amateur Swimming Association’s team of eight swimmers and two officials traveling to the CARIFTA Games in Curacao.

The team departed Friday and returns on April 12.

On Thursday, Vice-President Cristy Campbell handed over the sponsorship cheque to Dwayne Scott, GASA President, and wished the team departing much success.

In a release from GOA, it was explained that at their first convened Council Meeting with all constituent members on Thursday, newly-elected Secretary-General, Vidushi Persaud-McKinnon, reported that the Executive Committee has thus far engaged every single association member by way of individual letters which have been duly received and in months to come, will be engaging every Association.

President  Godfrey Munroe addressed the meeting and apprised them of decisions taken because of reasons of expediency to address some requests and correspondence which have been directed to the GOA.
