Ariza is proud to announce its renewed sponsorship of the Ariza Excel GBSS Basketball team, as 2023 marks Ariza’s second year of sponsorship. The Credit Union originally partnered with the team in 2019 and the Ariza Excel GBSS Basketball team emerged champions in the Secondary School Competition.
As the Coronavirus limited many sporting activities, the Secondary School Competition was on a two-year hiatus. With less restriction on physical activities now, Ariza Credit Union was able to retain title sponsorship of the basketball team. The sponsorship agreement will assist the Ariza Excel GBSS Basketball team with funding for uniforms and training equipment. This year, the team is led by Captain Jakeme Gellineau along with Co-captains Jayden St. Louis and Dawson George. The Ariza Excel GBSS Basketball team will make its debut on Wednesday 11th January 2023 as the 2023 Subway Inter Secondary School Tournament begins.
Ariza has been steadfast in its commitment over the years to its communities, youth, sport, and culture and continues to showcase its commitment by sponsorship of the Ariza Excel GBSS Basketball Team along with other community initiatives. The team has been a top performer in the Secondary School’s Basketball competition over the years, finishing in top three positions for the past five years which is a testament of the player’s hard work and love for the sport which is what the Credit Union aims to nurture and support with this year’s sponsorship.
Last year, the Credit Union celebrated its 75th anniversary under the theme ‘75 Years of Transforming Lives’ and is looking forward to several more years of transformative service to its members and Grenada, Carriacou and Petite Martinque. Ariza continues to encourage its membership and the population to reach for their dreams on their individual journey to financial freedom.
