GUYANA has been confirmed to host the 2024 Central America and Caribbean (CAC) Bodybuilding Championship, president of the Guyana Bodybuilding and Fitness Federation (GBBFF), Keavon Bess, announced Saturday evening.
Initially, Guyana’s bid to host CAC 2023 was submitted to the Executive of the Central America and Caribbean Bodybuilding and Fitness Federation (CACBBFF).

However, CAC 2023 was given to Aruba after their bid was revealed to have been presented since 2020.
Bess indicated that Barbados, at CAC 2019, had also bid for and secured CAC 2022.
At both of these General Assembly, Guyana was not represented.

After consideration of Guyana’s bid document and oral presentation on Guyana’s behalf, the CAC General Assembly unanimously voted in favour of Guyana for CAC 2024. This vote was then officially minuted and an official document to this effect was handed to the President of the GBBFF at the 48th edition of the Championship which concluded on Sunday in El Salvador. In another section of the press, Bess had stated his enthusiasm over hosting the event on the economic impact since athletes and their team officials are the ones who stand the costs to attend.
The host federation’s main expenditure would be for the CAC officials, Secretariat, and a big banquet for all athletes and officials at the end of the competition.
