Corporate entities Exxon Mobil and Tiger Rentals lent their support to the Kashif and Shanghai ‘Bounce Back’ football tournament which ended on New Year’s Day. Communications Manager of Exxon Mobil, Nicholas Yearwood and General Manger of Tiger Rentals, Shane Singh, last week presented sponsorship cheques to President of the Guyana Football Federation (GFF), Wayne Forde.
Yearwood and Singh both expressed gratitude for being among the supporting cast of the two-day, four-team tournament which kicked off Tuesday.
They stated that they were looking forward to building a stronger partnership with football and the sports fraternity in the new year. Forde thanked Yearwood and Singh whilst underscoring the safety of the players competing in the tournament. “It is also important for me to use this occasion to state that the Bounce Back’ football event is being organized and managed in the strictest possible compliance with the conditions that were outlined by the COVID-19 Task Force. All the players were tested for COVID-19 prior to the event which is a collaborative effort involving the GFF, the Kashif and Shanghai Organization and the Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sports.
