Guinness Cage “East Coast Best vs the Rest” Competition
Renowned for its unrivalled provision of services in the security sector, Queensway Security Services confirmed its association with the Three Peat Promotions’ Guinness Cage Competition following a simple ceremony at the entity’s head office at Oronoque and Regent Streets on Friday.
The five-day tournament dubbed “the East Coast Best versus the Rest” will commence on August 8, at the Haslington Market Tarmac with the remaining playing days being August 11, 18, and 25 and September 1, at the same venue.
Making the presentation of a cheque for an undisclosed sum to Three Peat Promotions’ Rawle Welch was Queensway Security Services Operations Manager Clay Flatts, who did so in the presence of Chief Operations Officer Lancelot Khan.
Flatts, a former standout footballer, praised the promoters for their willingness to support the development of the game and urged that they execute the tournament with the professionalism and discipline that are associated with the company.
Khan, in his remarks, said he was keen to understand the sport and promised to attend the event.
Welch expressed his gratitude to the company for its significant support at the Promotions’ first call, adding that it signalled the seriousness of the organisation in helping to develop sports and cohesion among the various communities that the participating teams come from.
He said unlike many other corporate entities that prefer to wait and watch a product develop before getting on board, Queensway has led the way in helping to shape and develop the product.
“I have to say that Queensway Security Services is a shining example of what corporate responsibility is and should other entities duplicate their deed, then sports and athletes will be able to strive,” Welch mentioned.
The company provides a range of security services, including static, armed and unarmed guards, armed patrol, response services, alarm monitoring, emergency response, security escorts and VIP protection service.
Twenty-four teams will contest the competition with a minimum of 12 chosen from East Coast villages, while the remainder will comprise teams from Georgetown, Linden and West Demerara.
Every night, there will be a winner among the fans – the fan who buys the most buckets of the sponsor’s beverages.
Among the other entities who have pledged their support are: Banks DIH under its Guinness and Power Wine brands; Clarks footwear giants Chetsons; E-Networks Inc; KSM Investments; Yhip’s Bakery; Brass Aluminium & Cast Iron Foundry (BACIF); Ray’s Auto Sales; YK Investments; Trophy Stall; Express Shipping; Woodpecker Products; National Sports Commission; C Division of the Guyana Police Force; Attorney-at-Law Roysdale Forde; Julius Variety Store and C & C Prestigious Styles.
