NSC Vice-Chair Cristy Campbell and Director of Sport Steve Ninvalle gathered with some of the athletes who participated in the AAG’s ‘Academy Meet’ yesterday at the Eve Leary Ground.

The Athletics Association of Guyana (AAG) initiated their academy programme with the staging of the inaugural ‘Academy Meet’ at the Eve Leary Ground yesterday, with Director of Sports Steve Ninvalle emphasising the importance of the initiative.

He hailed it as “crucial for talent identification and development” while committing to the continuance of the athletics academy under the NSC’s National Sports Academy initiative.

“The National Sports Commission, Ministry of Culture, Youth, and Sport, and by extension, the government of Guyana, will continue to partner with the AAG to fund this academy,” he declared.
