Former players of Camptown Football Club (CFC), located in First Street, Campbellville who are now residing in New York, USA, and under the Camptown New York umbrella, have made a timely donation of equipment to help boost the development of the youth arm of CFC.
President of Camptown New York, Ralph Green who was in Guyana recently handed over the equipment to CFC President, Brother Akram Sabre.
Among the items handed over are two uniform kits for 18 players along with two goalkeeper kits, training ladders, training hurdles, training bibs, spot markers, cones, 12 balls, and players’ sack packs.
Camptown NY President Ralph Green in handing over the items to CFC President Akram Sabree challenged him and his executive to commence the rebirth of the club so that they can return to the glory days in the near future by dint of consistent and committed work with the youths.
“We are eager from the New York end to see you guys get back to being very active as a club. The youths deserve your support and we are here to ensure that you get the requisite assistance in order to achieve this objective. We have always been supportive and will continue to be there for this club but we need to see some action and consistency from this end.”
CFC has over the years produced numerous junior and senior national team players apart from being one of the top-tier clubs in the city and even won the Kashif and Shanghai year-end championships.
President along with former CFC Captain and national team player, Troy ‘Bugs’ Prescod accepted the equipment and promised to work collectively with Camptown NY to return the club to its former glory by investing in a robust youth development plan.
