The National Sports Commission (NSC) continues to give and receive.
Recently, a large quantity of basketball and volleyball nets was presented to the NSC compliments of Silvie’s Variety Store.
The NSC also gifted a javelin to CARIFTA Games gold medalist Anisha Gibbons to help sharpen her craft.
The presentations were made at the NSC’s headquarters on Homestretch Avenue.
Silvie’s Sales Manager Naressa Nabby made the donation of the nets to Director of Sport Christopher Jones, who reiterated the importance of having corporate Guyana play a part in improving sports here.
Jones conveyed heartfelt thanks to the management of Silvie’s as this donation was a timely one and helpful.
Meanwhile, in the presence of her coach Raymond Daw and staff of the NSC, Gibbons received the javelin from the commission, which was another means of rewarding the 15-year-old for her standout effort at the Games – held during the Easter weekend in the Cayman Islands.
The student of Bygeval Secondary School threw 40.34 metres to earn gold at the 48th edition of the event.
