Yesterday, at the National Racquet Centre on Woolford Avenue, the Guyana Squash Association (GSA) held a press conference to disclose Guyana’s 20-member team, which will seek top honours at the Junior Caribbean Area Squash Championships (CASA) 2025 in the Cayman Islands.

With the sponsorship of E-Networks (Title Sponsor), KFC, the National Sports Commission (NSC), the Guyana Olympic Association (GOA) and Bounty Farm, the talented youngsters will depart Guyana today and are scheduled to return on July 6.

The team will be accompanied by Guyana’s successful Junior Squash Coach Carl Ince.

David Fernandes, President of the GSA, thanked the sponsors for their support and for their efforts to make this trip possible.

“We have a young, talented and dedicated group, and I am confident the youngsters can do well.

This year, we have new uniforms with the sponsors’ logos and an indigenous design on the front of the shirt,” said the hard-working Fernandes.

Also speaking was Christie Campbell, who represented the National Sports Commission (NSC).

Campbell stated that the NSC, the Sports Ministry, and by extension, the Government of Guyana, have been creating infrastructural development for Sports, which includes the upgrade of the National Racquet Centre and the construction of the ‘Doubles’ Court, which she said was one of only two such Squash Courts in this region.

“Just being selected for your country is an achievement, and always give your best since you are Guyana’s ambassadors in Sports. We have committed to support in every way”, added Campbell, a competent Lawn Tennis player.

Also speaking were former Southern Caribbean Squash Champion Garfield Wilshire, who represented the Guyana Olympic Association (GOA) and Bounty Farm, Linden Henry, Marketing Manager of E-Networks and Paul Subryan, CEO of KFC.

Captain of the team, Louis Da Silva, eloquently gave the vote of thanks, while Loriann Ince-Caravel did an excellent job as MC.
