GUYANA Telephone and Telegraph (GTT) and Everest Cricket Club (ECC) on Friday inked a deal to rebuild the squash court at the Club.

Orson Ferguson, Chief Operations Officer (COO) of GTT Business Solutions and Colonel Bhageshwar Murli, executive member of ECC signed the contract which will see the 30-year-old communications giant in Guyana, provide the funding for the Club to completely makeover its squash court.

The new upgraded court will provide better lighting, back glass, and a viewing lounge making the players’ and spectators’ experiences up to international standards.
A release from the club indicated Col. Murli thanked GTT for coming on board with one of the oldest sports club (established in 1914) in the country.

He said that this squash court will provide our players with conditions that are comparable to what they will encounter when they have to play competitions locally and internationally.
Col. Murli added that it is the club’s policy to have the best facilities and such will provide for the best talents to emerge. The court will also add to the national stock of excellent facilities available for the sport of squash.

Ferguson said it was an honour for them to partner with ‘this prestigious and premier club’ which had been producing outstanding sport personalities.
He and his company have been impressed by the efforts and energy being put into upgrading, expanding and modernising the facilities of the club.

And he looks forward to seeing the Everest Squash Court produce national players while others can enjoy safe and healthy competition.
