The games will run from November 23- 27. The competition was initially scheduled for October in the Dominican Republic but due to the hurricanes, the organizers postponed the event and the location was eventually changed as the work of the athletes were recognized.

Guyana’s contingent will comprise student/athletes in four disciplines, basketball. Chess, table tennis and track and field.
