GBA, Bris O Promotion assist boxing fraternity with food hampers

The Guyana Boxing Association (GBA) in collaboration with Seon Bristol of Bris O Promotion last weekend presented 65 food hampers to boxers and officials of the association.

The hampers were made following donations from several companies and well-wishers, the GBA said. The USA-based Bristol said that it is the first, but not the last time that he will be providing assistance during the “difficult COVID-19 period.”

He added that there will be further dialogue with the GBA on if and when a similar exercise would be held.

GBA president Steve Ninvalle explained that in such trying times it is only fitting that the association attempt to minimise the burden of its affiliates. He urged other associations to follow suit as there is present urgent need for assistance.

Ninvalle added that hampers were also delivered to the families of the four national boxers stranded in Cuba. Hampers were distributed to boxers, referees, judges and coaches.
