GVF and SSSS close teachers’ volleyball camp on a High

The primary school teachers’ training clinic hosted by Samaritan Sports Support System (SSSS) in collaboration with the Guyana Volleyball Federation (GVF) closed off its one week training clinic on Friday at the National Gymnasium on Mandela Avenue.

President of the GVF, John Flores expressed his satisfaction and urged all the participants to transcend the knowledge they would have gained into the school system.

Event coordinator, Robert Sam acknowledged the dedication shown by the primary school teachers and emphasized on the importance of having sports in the schools. He noted that from the training received these teachers are better equipped to prepare teams to compete in tournaments and do outstandingly well.

The coach of the event, Tameshwar Doolchand was extremely impressed in the abilities displayed by the 19 participants. He agreed with Sam in the ability of the teachers to move into competitive sporting in volleyball.

The teachers themselves recognized the technicalities, methods and strategies needed to develop the sport and are eager to make volleyball as popular in their schools as cricket and football.

The coordinator went on to identify that this effort is not the last but Samaritan Sports Support System clinic will be heading on to region three where his team will be looking at the Churches across the region for development.
