No justifiable basis for Jamaica’s inclusion

Nigel Hinds

Former president of the Guyana Amateur Basketball Federation (GABF) Nigel Hinds is of the opinion that Jamaica should not have been included in the upcoming FIBA Pre Qualifiers in El Salvador which get underway next week.

According to a recent press release announced by FIBA, the Jamaicans were a late addition.

“The inclusion of Jamaica in the El Salvador hosted 2021 Americas Pre-Qualifiers group is without any justifiable basis that I can unearth,” Hinds, a distinguished academic who also represented Guyana at two sports disciplines, said in an invited comment.
