Hand-in-Hand Mutual Fire Insurance Company Limited has once again thrown its support behind table tennis by sponsoring Guyana’s 2018 National Girls 13 and 15 years champion, Thuraia Thomas.
Thomas will be representing Guyana at the Caribbean Pre-Cadet Table Tennis Championship, scheduled for August 24 to September 1, 2018, in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic.
The Caribbean Cadet and Junior Championship brings together girls and boys between ages 11 and 13 years in the Caribbean region and forms as the basis for regional table tennis supremacy.
It is the incubator for the development of young emerging table tennis talents and platform from which all regional table tennis stars commence their journey. Thomas is also the winner of the US Open and Caribbean titles and is trained under the tutelage of coaches Dwain Dick, Colin France and Linden Johnson.
In a simple presentation at the company’s Head Office, Shafeena Juman, Marketing Coordinator, proudly handed over the sponsorship cheque to Thomas.
Juman expressed delight in the company once again being able to support the bright and talented athlete and assured that the company will always continue to support the development of sports. She also wished Thomas success at the event.
Thomas thanked the company for its longstanding support and promised to bring home the top prize.
