Griffith elected to head LDFFC

POPULAR football official Lawrence ‘Sparrow’ Griffith was last Sunday elected to head the recently-formed Little Diva Flames Football Club (LDFFC), when that entity held its election of office-bearers at the Guyana Football Federation (GFF) head office.

Present secretary of the Georgetown Football Association (GFA) Charmaine Wade was elected to serve in the said position for the Little Diva Flames, while Dr. George Norton will serve under Griffith as the lone vice-president.
While the position of treasurer remains to be filled, Carlica Pollydore was named as the assistant secretary/treasurer with Monica Ferreira and Sibby Sancho serving as the committee members, with Joseph ‘Bill’ Wilson and Sheron Abrams being identified as the coaches.
The full executive slate reads: Lawrence Griffith (president), Dr. George Norton (vice-president), Charmaine Wade (secretary), Carlica Pollydore (asst. secretary/treasurer) and Monica Ferreira and Sibby Sancho (committee members).
When the club was formed two weeks ago its patron Colin Baker handed over a quantity of gear. Training will commence at a ground to be named (possibly Ministry of Education) next Saturday from 09:00hrs and will continue every Saturday, with Thursday being an alternative day as well.
