Golden Jaguars International Jeremy Garrett donated several pieces of football equipment yesterday to his former alma maters Chase Academy and North Ruimveldt Multilateral schools.
The presentation occurred at the respective schools and included playing kits for the entire teams, six balls, two pairs of goalkeeper gloves, hurdles, flat and high cones, training ladders and poles.
The current Slingerz FC standout, who garnered national sporting relevance following his exploits for both institutions, stated, “The presentation today is just a tip of the iceberg of what Mr. Chase would’ve done for the school.
It’s moreso a small gesture in me giving back to the institution that I’ve played for, for 3 to 4 years, where we dominated school football. This is just me showing my appreciation to Sir Chase and give the youths the equipment and some of the resources that they may need.”
Meanwhile, Chase Academy principal Henry Chase said, “This is a classic example, Jeremy demonstrated when you would’ve achieved or you start to achieve, that you always remember where you come from.
So, I really want to thank him and I really hope that this could be a progressive thing that our school and Jeremy can collaborate in the future.”
Similarly, North Ruimveldt Multilateral Graduate Deputy Headmaster Lokesh Persaud noted, “I want to say thanks on behalf of the HM, students and staff of North Ruimveldt to Mr. Jeremy for the kind donation towards our football team.”
