Daniel McBeth
President
McBeth, former 1st Vice President, assumed the role of Acting President following the passing of the late Raymond De Bellotte. In addition to his WCDF leadership role, he serves as President of the Guyana America Economic, Social & Cultural Association.
McBeth’s introduction to dominoes began in childhood, thanks to his grandmother, who encouraged him to play as a fun and engaging way to learn numbers. She believed the game would make numbers more approachable while fostering skills in counting and pattern recognition. What began as a teaching tool quickly grew into a lifelong passion.
​
After relocating to the United States, McBeth stepped away from other sports to focus entirely on dominoes. Today, as President of the Sheffield Sports Club, he remains deeply engaged in the sport — playing almost daily and using the game as a way to connect with people from all walks of life.
