Just days after the organisers of the Inter-Market Football Competition were forced to postpone their scheduled tournament because of the unavailability venue, the Cliff Anderson Sports Hall (CASH), another sport organisation was forced to do the same.
The Pepsi Sonics Basketball Club issued a press release yesterday, postponing their scheduled International Goodwill Basketball Tournament that was set to be held during August 20-26 at the premier indoor venue for sport in Guyana.
The release said that the event had been “cancelled” owed to “unforeseen circumstances”, but the president of the club, Merle Jordon, later confirmed that the event was postponed and not cancelled and will be held at a later date.
The release had given “in the new year” as the alternative date for the International Goodwill Basketball Tournament. The club thanked all organisations, sponsors and other stakeholders who had shown support and interest in the competition.
The National Sports Commission that operates under the Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sport had issued a letter to the organisers of the Inter-Market Football Competition informing them of a Science Fair at the venue between August and October.
The letter was shared with the media. The scheduled Science Fair would have to be one of the largest in the world to consume a three-month span and force widespread postponement of sport events. The National Community Basketball League (NCBL) will also be in jeopardy to retain dates for its semi-final and final.
