Orein Angoy was returned unopposed as president of the Diamond United Football Club when the entity officially staged its Electoral Congress on Monday.
Angoy’s re-election also witnessed the election of nine women to the 11 member executive committee, which is a first for the association. The elected executive reads: Angoy (President), Vianne Stanislaus (Vice President), Marcel Pinder (Treasurer), Charlene Da Costa-Cameron (Secretary), Nicole Mc Kenzie (Assistant Secretary/Treasurer), Atoya Shepherd (Public Relations Officer) as well as Committee Members Rockwell Adams, Tobika Wright, Amanda King, Threcia Williams and Yerina Carvahal.
The executive committee will now govern the affairs of the region for the period of two years. Serving as the returning officer for the elections was recently elected President of the East Bank Football Association (EBFA) Kevin Anthony.
Following the conclusion of the forum, Anthony praised the club for its decision to elect women to the majority of the respective posts. Meanwhile, Angoy thanked the club for reposing confidence in him and encouraged the members to work harder to take the club to another level.
