ST JOHN’S, Antigua (CMC) — Cricketers from Guyana and Trinidad and Tobago grabbed the top awards at the just-concluded West Indies Cricket Board Sandals Foundation Under-15 High Performance Camp in Antigua.
Guyanese Renaldo Mohammed copped the Most Outstanding Cricketer award, while his teammate, Richie Looknauth, won the trophy for Best Bowler.
Mohammed was also the leading bowler in the WICB Regional Under-15 Tournament this year.
He finished the tournament with 33 wickets which included a match haul of 14 against the Leeward Islands.
Trinidad and Tobago’s Under-15 captain Kirsten Kallicharan was adjudged the Best Batsman.
The Best Fielder Award went to Chrystian Thurton of Trinidad and Tobago while another Trinidadian, Leonardo Julien took the award for Best Wicketkeeper.
The most promising players were also named. They are Uri Smith (Antigua and Barbuda), Ashmead Nedd (Guyana), Javani Tyson (Leeward Islands) and Nathaniel McDavid (Trinidad and Tobago).
Head Coach Dwain Gill said the limitations of the players were identified early and the coaching team used the camp to address those specific points.
“Most of the participants would have passed the test and we urge them to take this knowledge and talents back to their countries and clubs,” Coach Gill said.
The 57 elite young cricketers were involved in a week of training focusing on technical skills, techniques and strategy, and life skills.
