Guyana will be represented by a three-member roster at the South American Women’s and Men’s Classic Powerlifting Championships in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
This was confirmed by a press release from the Guyana Amateur Powerlifting Federation (GAPLF). According to the correspondence, the competing team comprises Sarah Sanmogan, Kheon Evans, and 79-year-old Naranjan Singh. Accompanying the competitors is Coach Kerma Singh.
Sanmogan, who captured four gold medals and one silver accolade at the previous edition, will be competing in the Junior 69Kg category. On the other hand, Evans and Naranjan will feature in the 83Kg Open and Masters Categories, respectively.
Singh, during brief remarks, said, “I do not doubt that our athletes will keep the Golden Arrowhead flying high. We had a bigger team in Peru last year, and they represented well by capturing 14 gold medals, two silver, and five bronze overall. That was indeed an inspiring performance, and I can assure you that this year will be no different in terms of our success.”
