Magnum Independence Cup shifted to National Park

The Magnum Independence Futsal Cup will have a new venue, with the organisers naming the National Park as the tournament’s arena of play.
After the Cliff Anderson Sports Hall was made unavailable to organisers despite receiving permission earlier to utilise the venue, new appointed acting Commissioner of Police Clifton Hicken came to the aid of the organisers.
Edison Jefford, responsible for logistics of the tournament, shared that, “We made the decision to engage the National Park, since our stakeholders, including our sponsors, expressed a concern with teams travelling out to Liliendaal. The teams as well expressed this concern. So, we want to thank the Guyana Police Force, Guyana Fire Service, Environmental Protection Agency, and National Parks Commission for their cooperation in allowing this tournament to proceed at a central venue,” Jefford shared.
The event will now kick off on Saturday from 19:00hrs with seven games scheduled for the opening night of action.
