Genesis Football Club launched for youth development

Michael Richmond continues to contribute to the development of football in Guyana. Having created The Genesis Football Club on June 13, 2023 to develop and form a launching platform for aspiring young footballers, he has explained that the aim of this club is to provide these youngsters with an environment in which they can grow.
“In this form of growth, I mean a place where they will first develop academically, because these schools are some of the highest in the country and best in the region I must say; but also, they will develop football-wise. These aspiring athletes will receive top-notch coaching, enabling them to develop their technical abilities and tactical understanding,” he detailed.
This club has paved the pathway in granting scholarships to young footballers like Kvist Paul and Matrim Martin, who will be attending Kingston College; along with Seon Cato and Soloman Austin, who are projected to represent St. Jago High School; and Jaleel Alcindor, who has been given a scholarship to attend MICO University to study on a full scholarship and represent the institution at the college level.
The scholarships given to these players are full two-year scholarships, which will include school fees, text books, additional tuition assistance, medical monitoring, boarding, and meals.
Lucozade has come on board to sponsor the club in order to fulfill its mission.
