RHTY&SC congratulates Royston Crandon on West Indies selection
The Patron, June Mendes, President Keith Foster, Executive Committee, Staff and membership of Guyana’s leading youth and sports club, Rose Hall Town Youth and Sports Club has extended congratulations to Royston Crandon on his selection to the West Indies Team to play in the upcoming ICC Champions trophy in South Africa.
Crandon’s selection the release stated is historic since it marks the first time a male cricketer of the RHTY&SC has been selected on the West Indies squad. Erva Giddings toured with the West Indies Female team to Sri Lanka last year.
“His selection is fulfillment of a career based on national talent, discipline, commitment and an undying love for the game. The Management of the club always had high expectations of Royston Crandon after he joined the club in 1985 at the tender age of 12.
Over the years Royston has represented us with pride and honour at the Under-15, 17, 19, second and first division levels while he had also played for Guyana at the Under-15, 19 and senior levels. He is a product of the club’s investment in youth development and a graduate of our highly successful annual cricket academy.”
“We wish him a productive Champions Trophy with both bat and ball and we are confident that this would be a start to a long and highly successful career wearing the maroon West Indies cap.
Royston’s selection has inspired the management of this dynamic club to work harder to upkeep the very high standards we have set ourselves and to make sure that others like Assad Fudadin follow in his footsteps very shortly.
We would like to share this special moment with corporate sponsors – Farfan & Mendes Ltd, DDL Pepsi, GT&T Cellink, Bakewell and West Indies Sports Bar who have all sponsored teams Royston has played for from the Under-15 to senior levels.”
The RHTY&SC is also extending special congrats to Travis Dowlin on his selection on the same squad.
