“Each one of you should be very proud to be a member of the most dynamic youth and sports organisation, that has ever existed in Guyana and even prouder of the fact that your club is investing heavily in your cricket career as well as your educational background.” Those were the words of Vice President of the Rose Hall Town Youth & Sports Club, Mark Papannah as he addressed members of the Club. The Rose Hall Town Youth & Sports Club is currently undertaking a special project to assist its junior members with cricket gears and white cricket uniforms.
Over fifty players from the male and female cricket teams have benefitted from the Dare to Dream Programme and Patron’s Fund. The Club for 2018 to date handed over fifteen cricket balls, five pairs of batting pads and six pairs of batting gloves to its junior players. Ten junior players also received white cricket uniforms as the RHTY&SC strives to follow the rules of the Berbice Cricket Board, which states that all players shall be attired in whites at the junior level. Among the players benefitting are Shamar Scott, Jonathan De Viera, Kimmone Thomas, Joshua Wilson, Angelinao Ramdihal, Vishal Gopilall and Farook Mohamed.
Club Secretary/CEO Hilbert Foster at the presentation ceremony stated that the Club has a proud tradition of success to uphold and as such it was important that its young members understand their roles as early as possible.
The investment into its players is a worthy one as it would encourage them to focus more on the game and to develop a culture of loyalty to the Rose Hall Town Youth & Sports Club. Foster, who is also the President of the Berbice Cricket Board disclosed that another batch of cricketers would benefit before the end of the year, while all members attending school would receive educational materials for the new school year beginning in early September. Application to be a RHTY&SC, MS member has been placed on hold as Foster stated that the Club’s membership is already large and noted that only eleven cricketers make up a cricket team.
The donations were made possible with the assistance from Food-for-the-Poor and funding from the Patron’s Fund. The Patron’s Fund is financed by an annual donation from the RHTY&SC Patron, His Excellency President David Granger.
