Massy Industries is on board with the annual fundraiser of the Young Warriors Cricket Club of Cumberland, East Canje, Berbice – Mash Cup 2016.
The company is in support of this event from the inception and at the presentation ceremony held recently, Roxan Prahalad, employee of the New Amsterdam Branch of Massy Distributions, told the gathering that they are pleased to be part of this annual event. She said that all and sundry can see the progress the club has made as it continues to produce players at all levels. “Lots of infrastructure work is done too,” remarked Prahalad.
Collecting the two large hampers, Hubern Evans, Senior Coach of the striving club, thanked the company for coming on board once again after providing support for every tournament since its inception. He said that despite the challenges faced, the club continues to grow. He called on other businesses and private individuals to follow suit. Evans added that these times it is important to keep youths off the streets and sports is a major way of doing so. He reiterated the club’s motto of “Striving for excellence through cricket and education”.
Other sponsors on board so far are beverage giants ANSA McAL and Ashiek and Sons Motor Supplies and Auto Sales.
This event will form part of Guyana’s 50th Independence Anniversary celebration with proceeds going towards further improvements to the club’s facilities and day to day running. In addition, funds will be allocated to three schools in the No19 to Gangaram area.
The tournament will be played on Tuesday February 23, 2016, a national holiday and will involve ten second division teams from the area. It will be five overs a side with no first division cricketers allowed. Top clubs such as Canje Pathfinders, Betsy Ground Triple Stars, Kendall’s Union A, Rose Hall Community Center and the host are expected to take part. Incentives with the value of over $100,000 will be up for grabs with lots of gate prizes on offer. The 2015 edition was described as a huge success.
