DDL recommits to cycling programme

BEVERAGE distributor Demerara Distillers Limited (DDL), under its Diamond Mineral Water brand, has renewed its sponsorship for the staging of an 11-race programme at the inner circuit of the National Park tomorrow. The event, which will pedal off at 09:00hrs, is being organised by national cycling coach and president of the Carlton Wheelers Cycling Club, Hassan Mohamed.
Yesterday, DDL’s Management Trainee, Trishwantie Doodnauth, presented the sponsorship cheque and cases of Diamond Mineral Water to Mohamed at his National Sports Commission’s office on Middle Street, noting that her company is pleased to sponsor the event for the seventh year in succession.
“We have been extremely impressed by the efforts to develop the talent of cyclists and we are always happy to support these efforts,” she said.
“We also recognise the importance that proper hydration plays in an athlete achieving his maximum potential in any activity and thus our presentation of Diamond Mineral Water as one of the leading forms in hydration in Guyana.”
Doodnauth also noted that “as a company we are always happy to give back to our consumers and the communities in which they live.
“Demerara Distillers Limited and its Diamond Mineral Water brand remain committed the development of sports and young athletes in Guyana and take this opportunity to wish the cyclists a competitive, safe and successful race,” she concluded.
Mohamed, the National Coach-of-the-Year 2011, said DDL has always been supportive of cycling, and he is happy to once again welcome them on board.
The feature race will be the usual 35-lap Schoolboys and Invitational where the ‘big boys’ compete for trophies, prime prizes and of course, bragging rights. Other races planned for the day include those for BMX, Veteran, Junior/Juvenile, Upright, and Female riders and executives of DDL are expected to be on hand to assist with the presentation of prizes.
