The association in a release said the body unanimously agreed, after re-submission of complete documents for full membership and affiliation, Archery Guyana has been deemed fully affiliated to the G.O.A with full affiliate status.
The Executive Committee of the G.O.A. recognised that two of Archery Guyana’s members, namely Wayne DeAbreu and Devin Permaul Persaud recently participated in the IX Copa Meringue in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic in April 2023.
