During the meeting with the Guyana Cricket Board (GCB), discussions sought to remedy the current difficulties and constraints faced by the Board in the execution of its mandate to advance the sport of cricket in Guyana. This resulted in a number of collaborative efforts being advanced.
Known for his passion for basketball, Ramson met with president of the Guyana Amateur Basketball Federation (GABF) Michael Singh, and his executives, as well as president of the Georgetown Amateur Basketball Association (GABA) Jermaine Slater, and his team. The basketball fraternity received Ramson’s fullest support, as he reminded that he more than dabbled in the sport.
