This is according to a recent release from the Guyana Rugby Football Union (GRFU).

The release stated that the Ambassador of Argentina to Guyana, Luis Martino and the Guyana Olympic Association (GOA) will collaborate to make the sojourn of the coach from Argentina a reality.

The following are excerpts of the release:

“Our scrum has been suspect in all three outings to date and so we have welcomed the Ambassador’s initiative of sourcing a specialist scrum coach to assist us in identifying / sharing ideas on improving.

“We hope this budding partnership will lead to further collaborations with Argentina’s Rugby which is the leading powerhouse in South America as well as being ranked in the top 15 in the world.

This initiative is very important to union and its players as it opens the doors we have been knocking on for some time. Kudos to the Ambassador who has been an ardent supporter and the Senior Minister of Sport. GOA has stepped up in time and should not be left out.
