Sandals donates footballs to GFA


Sandals Resorts International has made a contribution to the Grenada Football Association (GFA) by donating a number of footballs. President of the Grenada Football Association, Cheney Joseph made the request to Sandals Procurement Division Group Manager, Jordan Samuda, while he was in Grenada last October.

The international resort group which recently purchased the La Source Hotel will be operating under the brand name Sandals LaSource Grenada.

Sandals immediately offered to assist the association and has indicated their interest in developing synergies with the local community.

As a result of the President’s request, Sandals LaSource Grenada has ordered an unspecified amount of co-branded footballs which will assist the GFA with its ongoing development programmes. 

Samuda in responding to the President’s request said “We are here to stay and we want to show the people of Grenada that we care about the same things they do.”

He is hoping that a long term relationship will be forged between the Grenada Football Association and the resort. Samuda believes there are opportunities for both the GFA and his facilities in football once they are up and fully functional. (LS)
