CASH repairs force further postponement of Inter-Market Futsal

Oct 20, 2012 Sports

 

The long-awaited Inter-Market Futsal competition which is being organised by Stabroek Warriors Sports Club suffered another forced postponement according to Co-ordinator O’Neil Durant, who met the media on Thursday to apprise them of the situation.
This is the second time the tournament has had to be rescheduled due to the unavailability of the Cliff Anderson Sports Hall (CASH) with the initial date in August suffering the same fate as the most recent date.
Kaieteur Sport was given a release by the Organisers which according to them originated from the National Sports Commission giving reason for the latest setback.
The texts of the release are as follows: This serves to advise that the Stabroek Warriors Sports Club requested and was granted permission to use the CASH to host its Annual Futsal Inter-Market Tournament during August 2011.
Unfortunately, urgent maintenance works were carried out during that period and the tournament Co-ordinator was advised to consider rescheduling for November.
Request was once again granted for November 2012, but due to the International Indian Fair and further maintenance work on the floor of the CASH, Stabroek Warriors Sports Club will not be able to use the venue.
The National Sports Commission regrets any inconvenience and encourages your continued support to the Stabroek Warriors Sports Club in its endeavours. The letter was signed by Gervy C. Harry, Admin. Officer of the NSC.
In light of the recent development, Durant speaking with this newspaper said he is hoping that come next year, the venue will be up and ready to host the tournament which has seen an increase in the number of markets confirmed to participate, surpassing previous years.
He added that the growing popularity of the event has made it imperative for the Organisers to run off the tournament and he is hoping that when the facility becomes available, there will be no new negative developments to jeopardise the competition further.
