Price demands answers after injured St George’s College goalkeeper’s ambulance ordered back

KINGSTON, Jamaica — St George’s College head coach Andrew Price has demanded an urgent investigation after an ambulance transporting injured goalkeeper Gian Singh to hospital was reportedly ordered to return to the venue during their 0-3 defeat to Kingston College in the Manning Cup last week.

Price described himself as “flabbergasted” by the incident, which he said put the youngster at risk and has prompted him to seek answers from the Inter-secondary Schools Sports Association (ISSA) and the individuals responsible for overseeing the match.

The goalkeeper suffered a broken clavicle, or collarbone, during the match and was initially being transported by the Sure Time ambulance to the University Hospital of the West Indies when the vehicle was reportedly instructed to turn back along Mona Road because an ambulance was required to remain at the venue.
