THE Thomas Lands-based Malteenoes Sports Club will be buzzing with activity from 12:00hrs tomorrow when local darts players converge on the venue to compete in the various categories of the Guyana Darts Association (GDA) Mashramani tournament. Four events, namely, Luck of the Draw Doubles, Open Doubles, Open Singles and Three-Member Team will be contested with cash and trophies being issued to the top four finishers of the latter named three events.
While the GDA was able to acquire sponsorship for the Open Doubles and Singles and Three Member Team competitions, thanks to the kind patronage of GUYOIL, RPH Mining, UNITECH AWNING, Wayne Alphonso and LEN’s of Sheriff Street, they were unable to do so for the Luck of the Draw Doubles.
Despite this, tomorrow’s action will see players of the calibre of national champion Norman Madhoo, Sudesh Fitzgerald, Bryan James and Lalchand Rambharose in the male category along with Rosetta Heeralall, Jean Singh and Hemwattie Amyan on the distaff side doing battle for supremacy with the other competitors.
In the Open Singles competition, a lien trophy will be up for grabs along with a replica and cash prizes, while other incentives will be at stake. And not to show any signs of biasness, the GDA will be awarding cash incentives in the female category to the highest-placed finisher, the player who wins the fastest game and the one who gains the most 180s.
