– GASA says he hasn’t fulfilled the requirements
Guyanese-born swimmer Delroy Tyrrell, who has represented Trinidad and Tobago internationally, is yet to make headway in his effort to switch sporting nationalities and has written to Guyana Amateur Swimming Association (GASA) President Dwain Scott seeking an update on the situation.
Tyrrell, GASA, and the Guyana Olympic Association (GOA) came to an agreement on July 27, 2024, that the backstroke swimmer would switch allegiances and represent his native land on the international circuit.
A year on, in an email seen by this publication, Tyrrell says, “Unfortunately, as of 31st July, 2024, a little over a year has passed; I have not received any update from GASA as it relates to the subject above-changing my sporting nationality.”
