PRESIDENT of the Guyana BoxingAssociation(GBA) Steve Ninvalle yesterday paid tribute to late Technical Director Terrence Poole, M.S., who passed away suddenly yesterday morning at the age of 60-
According to Ninivalle, Mr Poole’s immeasurable contributions to boxing span four decades as an athlete and subsequently a coach; his presence will surely be missed in the local and regional boxing fraternity.
The GBA is grateful for Mr Poole’s unwavering support and dedication to our sport.

We extend sincerest commiserations to his wife, family, friends , and loved ones. May his soul rest in peace.
Poole, a key figure in boxing development in Guyana, did his usual morning run on Wednesday and complained of feeling unwell upon his return.
He was immediately rushed to hospital after having difficulty breathing.

Ninvalle said the sudden passing of Poole is a massive blow not just to boxing in Guyana, the Caribbean and beyond, but for sport in general.
The Director of Sport pointed out that planning was well underway for Poole to accompany local boxers for an upcoming overseas engagement.
Ninvalle said Poole’s passing leaves a gaping void in boxing in Guyana and the Caribbean, as his commitment, dedication and drive to propel the fistic sport was unmatched.
