FOLLOWING a few years of inactivity due to administrative challenges, the Timehri Panthers Football Club (TPFC) is back up and running and its team will participate in the East Bank Football Association (EBFA) leg of the GFF/Pele Alumni Frank Watson U-15 Intra Association League which kicked off last Saturday at the Grove Playfield.
Adrian Gonsalves, a former goalkeeper of the club, is taking the lead to organise the club. He wants to ensure that the youths in the area are gainfully occupied as regards football and to give them the opportunity to showcase their skills, with the ultimate aim of donning national colours.

The Under-15 players participated in the march past last Saturday and are eager to get cracking. EBFA president Franklin Wilson complimented Gonsalves for stepping up at a crucial time to bring some direction to the club, which has been one of the main pillars on the East Bank.

Wilson expressed joy for the youths in the area who he said are talented and just need someone to mobilise and give them direction. President of the Guyana Football Federation, Wayne Forde, was present and he also praised Gonsalves for taking the initiative.
The EBFA, in association with Dion Inniss, GFF executive member with responsibility for the EBFA, took the opportunity to present a number of bibs, jerseys and a football to Gonsalves as a means of encouragement.

The association would also be working with the club on finalising a new constitution as well as overseeing elections of a new body in the near future.
