She was part of the team who won in 2019 to complete a hat-trick of wins. She is a senior trade officer at the department of trade.<\/p>\n<p>For Rama, it was the first time he got called up for the Seychelles men\u2019s volleyball team. He described his participation as \u201cquite an experience\u201d, saying though the team did not win a medal \u201cthey are young, and if they stay together, at the next IOIG, they will be a force\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Rama works as a senior policy analyst in the financial services development division.<\/p>\n<p>On Wednesday afternoon, the last of our staff, boxer Dasheil Fanchette made his way back on his home soil and was welcomed at the airport by the executive director in the office of Minister Hassan, Cillia Mangroo and Comptroller General Astride Tamatave.<\/p>\n<p>The 20-year-old pugilist shocked the nation when in the final he defeated his Mauritian opponent to clinch the gold medal, on his first outing at the IOIG.<\/p>\n<p>Dasheil is an account technician at the treasury division.<\/p>\n<p>To note, before the three athletes headed to the games, staff of the ministry came together to generously donate towards their stay in Madagascar.<\/p>\n<p>The Ministry of Finance, National Planning and Trade says thank you to all three athletes for accepting the honour to represent Seychelles and wishes them luck in their future sporting outings.
