Minister Ramson, when will the Albion Sports Complex be ready for international cricket

Oct 24, 2024 Letters

Dear Editor,

Kindly allow me some space in your newspaper for this letter.

It’s been over six months now since the ground at the Albion Sports Complex had been relayed and grass planted.

In fact, the grass has grown so tall that it was slashed a couple times. So the condition of the outfield is in excellent condition. Editor, the problem is that since then, which is over six months now, work has ceased and the contractor is nowhere in sight.

The wooden stands are falling down and residents of Albion and surrounding areas are wondering what is going on. For the past couple of months we have had excellent weather and the people were hoping that the project would have gone a far way so that we can have international cricket early next year.

At a meeting at the JC Chandisingh High School a few months ago which I attended, I asked the Vice President if he could shed some light on when the Albion Sports Complex will be ready for international cricket and he replied that he was not in a position to answer the question, but we need to ask the Minister of Sports Charles Ramson, who should be updating the public on that project. So I would like to take this opportunity to publicly ask the Minister of Sports to please give cricket fans and the general public an update on when the Albion Sports Complex will be ready for international cricket. Cricket fans are anxiously waiting to see cricket again at this ground where the first ever one day international match in the West Indies was played in 1977.Hoping to hear from you soon Minister.

Yours Faithfully,
Imtiaz Baccus.
