Outstanding Berbice sports persons and organisation would be honoured when the Rose Hall Town Youth & Sports Club (RHTY&SC) in association with Sentinel Security Limited hosts the inaugural Gregory Gaskin Memorial Berbice Sports Awards Ceremony.
The awards that would be handed out are the Berbice Sportsman of the year, Berbice Sportswoman of the Year, Berbice Sports Organisation of the Year and Berbice Sports Personality of the Year.
This event which is anticipated to be held annually in the Ancient County will honour the late Gregory Gaskin, former Executive Director of Cops Security Company who died last year following a motor cycle accident.
His widow Ms. Noreen Gaskin, Executive Chairperson of Sentinel Security at a simple handing over Ceremony of the sponsorship cheque stated that she was honoured to team up with Guyana’s leading youth and sports organisation to honour outstanding performers in sports.
Ms. Gaskin noted that her husband was a firm believer in using sports as an avenue to keep youths away from illegal activities.
Secretary/CEO of the RHTYSC Hilbert Foster informed that the club was pleased to organise this historic, Berbice Sports Awards and called it another momentous project in the rich history of the Club.
The main aim of the Gregory Gaskin Memorial Berbice Sports Awards is to recognise and honour outstanding performers in sports, to identify positive role models for youths and to promote the importance of sports.
Foster disclosed that the Club had invited nominations for the awards from the general public and all sports organisations in Berbice and was pleasantly surprised at the enormous response. All four categories received dozens of nominations and a panel of judges headed by veteran Television News Editor Gregory Rambarran would select the winners. Each of the awardees would receive a trophy, plaque, Certificate of Excellence and a collection of gifts.
The Club on the same date would also be hosting the Ansa McAl Award of Excellence. Three Berbicians would be honoured for sterling and outstanding services as administrators in sports, education and community development.
