Heritage Games

Once again Archery Guyana’s collaboration with the Ministry of Indigenous People’s Affairs concluded with a very successful archery competition at this year’s Indigenous Heritage Games at the Everest Cricket Club Ground.

Though there was a little less participation in the competition, there was a lot more interest from patrons after the end of each day’s competition. There was an overall total participation of 53 competitors, most of whom were in the men’s division; 35 for the Men’s Division, 10 for the Ladies Division, 3 for the Youth Male 12-17, 2 for the girls Under 12 Division, and 3 for the boys Under 12 Division.

The curtain came down on the Indigenous Heritage Games in the wee hours of Monday morning, September 19, 2014 after the final football match between Region 1-Mabaruma and Region 9-Tabatinga at the Everest Cricket Club Ground.

Junior Indigenous People’s Affairs Minister, Valerie Garrido-Lowe was present along with Mr. John Ramsingh who announced the winners. The presentation of trophies for the winners of the Indigenous Heritage Archery Competition 2016, was made by GSSF/Archery Guyana Chair Mr. Nicholas Hing.
