Despite the closure of the window to submit the names of the athletes to participate at the South American Games in Paraguay next month, an 11th hour plea will be made this weekend at a meeting in Sao Paulo, Brazil in an effort to enable them to compete.
So said President of the Athletic Association of Guyana (AAG), Aubrey Hutson. Hutson confirmed to this publication yesterday that the AAG did not submit names of prospective athletes in the discipline he heads to the Guyana Olympic Association (GOA) in order to compete at the October 1-15 Games but stated, “In less than 24 hours, the GOA will have a list.”
