President of the Guyana Boxing Association (GBA), Steve Ninvalle, along with members of his executive and other association heads are embarking on a 100-mile walk aimed at raising funds to send a team of boxers and officials to next month’s Caribbean Development Tournament in Barbados.
According to Ninvalle, the walk which is planned for December 2, will start at No. 43 Village in Corentyne, Berbice and conclude at the Stabroek Market.
“We hope to complete it in 48 hours” said Ninvalle.
The ambitious walk is an expression of his passion for raising adequate funding for the touring contingent which consists of 13 boxers, five referee/judges and three coaches.
