Guyana Cricket Board Press Release
The Guyana Cricket Board (GCB) continues to demonstrate its support for youth and women’s cricket with a timely visit and donation by its President, Mr. Bissoondyal Singh, to the national Under-19 female team, currently encamped at the La Bonne Intention (LBI) facility on the East Coast of Demerara as they prepare to leave for Trinidad and Tobago today.
The team held their encampment at the Essequibo hostel where they were able to focus on skill development as well as physical fitness.
The newly renovated Essequibo hostel is now equipped with a bowling machine (donated by GCB) as well as a covered outdoor net facility, which allows for session during the rainy period.
As the squad prepares to depart for the upcoming Cricket West Indies (CWI) Regional Under-19 Female Tournament, Mr. Singh took the opportunity to engage with the players and coaching staff, delivering words of encouragement and reaffirming the Board’s commitment to their development.
During his visit, he also donated cricket gear to several members of the squad as part of the GCB’s efforts to ensure the players are well-equipped ahead of regional competition.
“This team represents the future of women’s cricket in Guyana,” said Mr. Singh.
“We are proud of the hard work they’ve put in, and the GCB is committed to providing the resources and encouragement they need to succeed. I urge them to play with pride, discipline and unity.”
The GCB extends best wishes to the Under-19 female team as they look to defend the title they won last year, carrying the hopes of a proud cricketing nation.
