Skender elected secretary of Press Commission

 

SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic, June 17, 2020 – Canadian Jackie Skender was elected on Tuesday as secretary of the NORCECA Press Commission presided over by Guatemalan Carolina Rivas.

 

Skender, press officer of Volleyball Canada, was proposed by Rivas and received the unanimous approval by the members.

 

The Commission held a virtual meeting to discuss the ongoing situation with the pandemic COVIV-19 and the future plans once the volleyball activities gradually return to normality.

 

The meeting was attended by Cristobal Marte Hoffiz, president of NORCECA, and Jose Luis Jimenez Lao, general secretary, as well as Arateide Caceres, general director.

 

Roosevelt Comarazamy, NORCECA Press Officer, made his annual report of activities, Yinet Cruz reported on the social media status and future plans while Skender made a presentation of a special collaboration on “ways to boost social media”.

 

President Marte Hoffiz informed the NORCECA Congress will be held virtually and to do so the constitution of the confederation had to be amended which was attained thanks to the hard work of the legal commission and the vote of the 41 National Federations and Territories.

 

The commission will organize a photography workshop following the proposal of Ernesto Beltre with dates to be arranged in the upcoming weeks.
