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.
