The Cliff Anderson Sports Hall, a key venue for sporting events in Guyana, has undergone a significant transformation, elevating it to international standards.
The newly upgraded facility now features air conditioning and a host of modern amenities.
Among the enhancements are a redesigned public entrance, corporate boxes, four dressing rooms, anti-doping rooms, and facilities for physiotherapists. Though bucket seats are yet to be installed, the hall is poised for immediate use.
Minister of Culture, Youth and Sport, Charles Ramson Jr., emphasized the project’s alignment with the President’s vision of positioning Guyana as a premier destination for world-class events. He stated, “This modern, air-conditioned facility that caters to corporate sponsors appropriately advances that vision.”
The venue is expected to host its first events later this month, including the finals of the National Futsal Championship and boxing matches. Minister Ramson highlighted that substantial work has been completed, including plumbing, roofing, and structural enhancements.
After an investment of approximately $300 million, the Cliff Anderson Sports Hall is ready to welcome the public, set to host noteworthy competitions such as the Kashif and Shanghai/One Guyana Futsal Championships and international boxing championships.
The installation of the bucket seats will follow in due course, completing the venue’s impressive upgrades.
