The Edward B Beharry Group of Companies Ltd have, for a 14th consecutive year, offered support to YBG year- round programs.
This year’s sponsorship is valued at $2,000,000 in cash and $1,000,000 in kind for a total value of $3,000,000.
The company’s Brand Manager Malisa Jeffers has stressed the importance of the Beharry Group’s commitment to nurturing talent, fostering discipline, and building character through youth
Basketball, so that students can reach their full potential on and off the court.
On the same day, G-Boats GY renewed its partnership for a 5th straight year. This year’s sponsorship is also to the time of $3,000,000 dollars, parts of which will go towards rehabilitation of the St Ignatius Secondary School Court and the installation of basketball hoops, according to Daniel LaFont, Business Development Director.
YBG Co-Director Chris Bowman has said the organization is elated at the renewal of
sponsorship by community partners such as Edward B Beharry Ltd and G-BOATS GY. “Without them, we would not have anything close to a basketball nursery, which have now been sustained
for over 17 years,” he said.
YBG will tip off its season this weekend, on February 24th and 25th, with the Challenge Series and Shooting Competition at the National Gymnasium.
