THE name Banks DIH has been in the conversation whenever talk about sponsorship in the sports sector arises and this year the company continues its support for the Inter-Guiana Games (IGG) with a sponsorship package presented to the National Sports Commission, ahead of this weekend’s Games in Guyana.
Water Beverage Brand Manager Clive Pellew made the presentation to Assistant Director of Sport, Brian Smith, during a simple ceremony at the NSC Office on Homestretch Avenue. Also present were Errol Nelson, Brand Manager of Banks DIH and R. Sooklall, Accountant of the NSC. The company will be providing Rainforest Waters and Powerade for the athletes and officials participating in the Games set for Friday to Sunday. Smith thanked Banks DIH for supporting the annual Games which started back in 1967 and involved the three neighbouring territories that comprise the Guianas.
The games will run from Friday to Sunday and will hold competitions in eight disciplines between Guyana and neighbouring Suriname, as French Guiana will not attend. Fans can look forward to action in basketball, volleyball, badminton, futsal football, table tennis, swimming and track and field.
