Anna Regina Stadium on track for month-end opening

Ahead of the opening of the Anna Regina Stadium in Region Two (Pomeroon-Supenaam) later this month, Minister within the Ministry of Public Works Madanlall Ramraj and Ministers of Culture, Youth and Sport Charles Ramson Jr and Steven Jacobs inspected ongoing works at the facility.
According to reports, the facility is on schedule for completion and grand opening. The state-of-the-art cricket facility, once completed, is poised to significantly strengthen sporting infrastructure in Region Two.
The stadium will feature a modern players’ pavilion, fully equipped commentators’ booths, enhanced seating facilities, upgraded sanitary amenities, and improved access and circulation areas to ensure comfort and functionality for athletes, officials, and spectators alike.

The project marks a major milestone in the Government’s continued investment in sports development, creating opportunities for regional and national competitions while providing a modern space for community and cultural events in the Pomeroon-Supenaam region.
Back in January, the Bayroc National Stadium in Region 10 was commissioned in grandeur, and according to Minister Ramson, it will be operated similarly to the Guyana National Stadium, Providence, which comprises a full staff complement.
The Bayroc National Stadium is expected to serve as a key venue for sporting events and community activities.
Ramson also stated that the Mackenzie Stadium will also be designated a national stadium and is set for an April opening.

Additionally, the Minister disclosed that four other stadiums, including the one in Anna Regina, are slated to be opened this year, including several indoor facilities aimed at broadening the country’s sporting capacity.
The flurry of openings forms part of the Government’s broader push to strengthen sports infrastructure nationwide, promote youth development, and position Guyana as a competitive host for regional and international sporting events.
With multiple facilities nearing completion and full staffing arrangements underway, the coming months are expected to mark a significant expansion in the country’s sporting landscape.
