Football officials go Down Under while football goes down under

In two weeks time Guyana’s Golden Jaguars as the national football team is known,  will oppose Suriname in their 2010 World Cup qualifier in Paramaribo with the return fixture scheduled for Georgetown.

Earlier this year the Guyana Football Federation (GFF) launched a World Cup Committee (WCC) to oversee Guyana’s preparation for the World Cup campaign with a view to ensuring the Golden Jaguars make it all the way to South Africa for the World Cup finals in 2010.

It was even announced that Guyana’s President His Excellency Bharrat Jagdeo had consented to serve as Patron of the WCC.
