MASSY GUYANA GROUP OF COMPANIES DONATES REFEREE ELECTRONIC SUBSTITUTION BOARD

22nd September, Georgetown: The Guyana Football Federation (GFF) received a referee electronic substitution board from Massy Guyana Group of Companies on Thursday, 21st September to enable the work of the referees in Guyana.

This presentation was made at the company’s Headquarters, Ruimveldt Georgetown, by Deo Persaud, Chairman of Massy Guyana Group of Companies to Dion Inniss, GFF’s Council Member and Chairman of the National Football Referees Council (NRFC)

In brief remarks, Inniss noted that the company has always been receptive to the football fraternity and thus not a first-time partner. He expressed gratitude to the company for their support: “Massy has always been a very reliable partner for football. We are happy to be using the Money Gram brand and this very important piece of equipment in football, which appears simple, contains information relevant to spectators and players alike. We’ve been without one for many months. We’re thankful for this presentation.”

Persaud in response said: “We are happy to assist sports on the whole and, in this case, football in particular. We do support several sporting disciplines and bodies across Guyana. So we as a group (Massy Services and Money Gram) continue to support and give back to the community, it’s part of Massy’s corporate philosophy to give back.”

In his remarks, Head of the Refereeing Department of the GFF, Stanley Lancaster said: “This is by far the most modernized board that we’ll use compared to the others we’ve had. We’ve had many manual boards so we welcome this. Every time we make a substitution, the brand will be visible.”
