Jul 13, 2012 Sports

Executives of the Guyana Association of Scrabble Players (GASP) remain resolute that emphasis must be placed on the nursery if the sport is to develop appreciably. It was with this belief in mind that they have planned a tournament for beginners at the Maltenoes Sports Club, Sunday July 15 next.
This competition is sponsored by Auto Tech Car Rentals and persons that have played in no more than 5 rated competitions are eligible to participate. The tournament forms a part of the developmental and awareness programme of GASP officials as they attempt to introduce the sport to the schools and communities.
Officials of the GASP Executive committee are encouraging students from Primary and Secondary Schools to take advantage of this opportunity to enhance their vocabulary while participating in the tournament which is also enjoyable and fun filled.
A special registration fee of $300 will be collected during registration period starting at 12:45hrs while the first tile will be moved at 13:00hrs sharp. The top three finishers will win trophies donated by the corporate community.
