… Over 500 athletes, officials to take part as Guyana hosts 2022 edition

DIRECTOR of Sport, Steve Ninvalle, said the upcoming Inter-Guiana Games, which will be held in Guyana, is expected to be one of the better spectacles as the event returns from November 25 to 27.

Guyana, Suriname and French Guiana will compete in nine beats with the French nation only competing in basketball, athletics and table tennis.
Ninvalle told Chronicle Sport yesterday that this event is significant as it was promised that the 2022 Games would be bigger and better than in previous years.

Among the beats are soccer, table tennis, swimming, cycling, athletics, basketball and a few others. Host venues include Cliff Anderson Sports Hall, National Gymnasium, National Aquatic Centre, Racquet Centre, National Track and Field Centre, Leonora.

The National Sports Commission (NSC) and the Ministry of Culture Youth and Sport have been doing a lot to ensure the event is a success according to Ninvalle, by creating a special organising committee which includes Ninvalle himself, along with other experienced persons familiar with the Games over previous editions.

Most specifically, the director pointed out that the highlight was His Excellency, President Dr Irfaan Ali’s promise for the return of the IGG Games, while giving his full support as Guyana seeks to host a premier competition.

Meanwhile, Ninvalle closed by confirming that more than 500 athletes and officials will participate in this year’s Games, adding that he expects to cap 2022 with the monumental and successful return to the IGG Games.
