The Caribbean Scrabble Championships are now a thing of the past and so too is the fact that Guyana has failed to dethrone defending champions, Trinidad and Tobago. However, the local word formers could take conciliation in the fact that they had placed second in the three nation championships and had inflicted a severe beating on the defending champs in the first round of the championships.
With the smoke now cleared, the local players will resume their local itinerary when the Guyana Association of Scrabble Players (GASP) stages an open tournament at the Malteenoes Sports Club tomorrow morning starting at 10:00hrs.
As expected, the top seeds will attempt to stave off the challenges of the young players who are all turning in improved performances. Those among the top ten that will be matching skills include, national champion, Abigail McDonald, her predecessor, Fred Collins, Leon Belony, Moen Gafoor and James Krakowsky among others. Aspiring champions the likes of Grace Hercules, Ruby Cummings, Wayne Cave and Michael Benjamin will be keen to present some trouble for these players which obviously would present an interesting scenario.
Lucrative prizes would be awarded to the top three finishers while and the best player out of the top 10 will receive a special prize.
Players are reminded that the cost of registration $500 and those activities commence at 09:30hrs. The first tile would be placed at 10:00hrs. Late comers would have their clocks activated in their absence.
THIS IDIOT TELLING GUYANA WE HAVE NO SAY IN THE 50% PROFIT SHARING AGREEMENT WE HAVE WITH EXXON.
