Following his exploits at the 18th IPF/NAPF Pan American Regional Powerlifting championships in Florida, USA, where he set a new 93Kg Open deadlift record, powerlifter Carlos Pettersen Griffith yesterday paid a courtesy call on Director of Sport, Steve Ninvalle, at his Middle Street Office.
Pettersen-Griffith took the occasion to thank the Director of Sport, for the support provided for his last sojourn when he broke several records and won two gold medals. Ninvalle reiterated the National Sports Commission’s (NSC) drive to further the development of sport in Guyana and informed that the Hon. Minister of Culture, Youth and Sport, Charles Ramson Jr., has a vested interest in and a comprehensive programme to achieve this.
