Guyana Boxing Association (GBA) 1st Vice-President, Dr Marissa Parris, will create history when she attends an International Boxing Association (IBA) ringside doctor’s certification course later this month in the South American nation of Ecuador.
It will be the maiden appearance of a Guyanese at an IBA ringside doctor’s course, which is scheduled to run from March 28 to April 3 in Guayaquil.
GBA President and Director of Sport, Steve Ninvalle, disclosed that the association made every possible effort to ensure Dr Parris’s participation, adding that the forum fits with the developmental vision of the entity.
