President of Nexgen Golf Academy Aleem Hussain thanked the multitude of sponsors, “Those who have believed in our vision from the beginning and the many new ones who are supporting the rapid growth of golf in Guyana are the reason for our success. Partnerships with the Scout Association of Guyana, Guyana Teachers Union, CPCE, the Ministry of Education Allied Arts Unit, Texas Golf Association and other sports organizations have helped us achieve what many said was impossible. Guyana is now a Golf Nation! But without the staunch support of Mr. Ramsey Ali, Philip Haynes, Nikita, Andrew Ramcharitar, Al Wilson and Steve who are there on a daily basis to ensure our success, we could not have gotten this far.”
