THE rehabilitation of the Cliff Anderson Sports Hall (CASH) on Homestretch Avenue is moving apace as the plan to beautify the sporting facility inches closer to fruition.
The Sports Hall is one of Guyana’s most active facilities for indoor sport activities, ranging from Boxing to Hockey and Basketball among other events.
The long-overdue upgrade comes courtesy of the Government of Guyana, through the Ministry of Culture Youth and Sports embarking on the journey to give CASH a new look, one that is befitting of a developing country like Guyana.
Speaking with the Guyana Chronicle was Eworth Charles Sangster of E.C.S Constructions and General Supplies, who provided an update of the historic venue.
According to Sangster, his phase of construction is scheduled to be completed by the end of this month.
“So, we’re working for that,” Sangster said, adding: “Within two weeks, we’re going to put in the VIP rooms, and the roof that’s outstanding.”
And while there are other contractors on board the project who are working on their allotted phases of the rehabilitation, Sangster said he can only speak on his part of it.
According to previous reports, the facility will be the first air-conditioned sports hall in Guyana, and, on completion, will have box seats and other modern amenities. (Faith Greene)
