The 60th staging of the Guyana Police Force annual athletics championship yesterday received a boost from corporate giant COURTS Guyana Inc, when the establishment handed over a cheque worth $300 000 to Deputy Superintendent Colin Boyce at their head office in Main Street. 

Boyce, the president of the Guyana Police Sports Club, was more than grateful for the support from COURTS, whom he said has been supporting the games since 2008.
The games started last Monday and will conclude today where several of Guyana’s best athletes will be on show at the Police Sports Club ground, Eve Leary.
Boyce, who was one of Guyana’s finest sprinters, said that COURTS’ contribution is always welcome and in fact, the Guyana Police Force is happy to have shared an excellent relationship with the entity.
With the Guyana Police Force celebrating its 175th Anniversary, Boyce said that the games will be a memorable one and encouraged all to come out and support the athletes.
Marketing Manager Purnell Cummings said that COURTS has long been a supporter of anything positive, especially in the world of sport and the company’s support for the Guyana Police Force Games is one that’s deep-rooted in a partnership with the lawmen.
COURTS, being the leading furniture and appliance store in Guyana, the entity is also proud to be a leader in support of sport and healthy living and athletics championships encourage active lifestyles and channel healthy competition and development of athletes.
