GAB Chairman Mitra.
The Games and Amusements Board will carry out a series of gym inspections in the coming days to assess the readiness of these facilities to provide essential training in preparing athletes get in their best physical shape. As it is a vital for an athlete’s competitiveness to be well-trained, GAB aims to safeguard these professionals from competing without proper training because of poorly maintained facilities.
And because GAB is ahead of the game, its Chairman, Abraham Kahlil “Baham” Mitra has proposed to recognize gyms that will comply with the standards set by the agency for suitable training of athletes, particularly boxers, MMA fighters, and other contact sports competitors. The purpose of this is to professionalize and regulate the quality of sports gyms across the country. GAB accreditation will be awarded to approved facilities with a certification that can be showcased to help promote their business. They will also be rated from 1-star to 5-star classifications based on the criteria to be set by GAB and it’s partners.
If the Department of Tourism accredits tourism establishments why can’t we accredit gyms? It is covered under our mandate to look after the welfare and Safety of our athletes, Mitra adds.
