Caricom Championship 2015…Port Mourant name team for GCB Fundraiser
Former power house, Port Mourant, a club that produced the second most Test cricketers in Guyana after City Club GCC, has named a young but strong team for the Berbice Cricket Board fund raiser “Caricom Championship” 2015.
The team will be led by National all rounder Rajiv Ivan and will include several young and talented cricketers who represented Berbice and Guyana at different youth levels. The batting will be in the hands of the captain and he should get support from Troy Gonsalves, Parmanand Narine, Arif Chan, new comer Avishkar Sewkarran, Samuel Kisnasammy, Joshua Ramsammy and Chanderpaul Hemraj. The bowling will be spearheaded by Demetri Cameron, Yudendra Harrinarine, Lloydel Lewis and Gonsalves.
Proceeds from this event will be used mainly to organise this very important three day cricket competition and will be played at the historic Albion Sports Complex on Sunday July 5, 2015.
The Caricom Championship will see the top eight T20 first division teams in Berbice taking part in a ten-over knockout competition with the final of 20 overs to be played under lights for a top prize of $80,000 and trophy. The runner up will receive $40,000 and trophy with the losing finalists $15,000 each. Man of the match in every game will be rewarded. Action begins at 10am sharp.
Many gate prizes will be up for grabs for the fans with a well stocked bar and musical entertainment. Games for the young and old will be there. To promote the game, fifteen passes each will be given to eight schools in the Lower Corentyne area.
The teams are: Upper Corentyne/Skeldon, Port Mourant, Rose Hall Town Youth & Sports Club, Albion, Young Warriors/Edinburg/Rose Hall Center, Police/Bermine, Blairmont/West Berbice and Bush Lot/D’Edward.
