The athletic virtues of many local athletes are often only recorded in the coliseum where they parade their craft, reducing them to mere performers and little acknowledgement is given to their social contribution to society.
However, that culture is changing and more individuals are starting to recognise the contributions of our athletes who embrace their obligation of volunteering and other forms of giving back to Guyana.
It was therefore refreshing when Stabroek Sports got wind of the inspiring story of Guyana’s 2019 Junior Caribbean Squash Champion, Abosaide Cadogan, who is participating in the annual U.S State Department Youth Ambassador Programme.
