The partnership between the Guyana Tennis Association (GLTA) and Guyana Bank for Trade & Industry (GBTI) has resulted in another successful tennis camp.
Despite the rainy last weekend, the camp ended with excitement at the GBTI Tennis Courts in Diamond.
In an opening statement, the President of GLTA, Mr. Jamal Goodluck, praised GBTI for their collaborative efforts. He expressed his gratitude to the scores of tennis enthusiasts for their zeal and willingness to participate in the camp.
The association will be working on maintaining a programme in the community. Parents were encouraged to continue to make tennis a key part of their children’s development, while the adults were congratulated for their endurance throughout the camp, with fun-filled competitions.
Mr. Surendra Samdass, Manager of GBI Diamond Branch, conveyed the commitment the financial institution has in supporting the development of tennis in Guyana and the community.
He upheld that GBTI will continue to foster a relationship with GLTA, by not just sponsoring the annual GBTI Tennis Tournament, but through the Diamond Tennis Camp as well. He encouraged the participants of the camp to take advantage of the opportunities available to utilize the bank’s tennis courts, so that they can develop their skills learnt over the pass few weekends. Immediately following his address, the Bank Manager presented the players with certificates of participation in the three-weekend tennis camp. Outstanding players won trophies in their respective categories.
Those categories were:
Adults Winner: Saeed Gopie Runner-up: Andy Jafer
