The President and Executive Members of the Berbice Cricket Board (BCB) has extended congratulations to the Management and Members of the Berbice Under-15 team which won the National Inter County Championship when they defeated defending champions Demerara in their final round match on Tuesday.
Six of the Berbice players were also named in the National 14-man squad to take part in the Regional tournament in Trinidad and Tobago from March 28 to April 4.
Following is the full text of the congratulatory message:
“This victory is special to the cricketing public in the Ancient County and was the result of massive investments in our youths, hard work, commitment and discipline.
Special mention must be made of the youthful duo of Manager Zaheer Moakan and Coach Julian Moore who were making their debuts at this level in the positions and who made sure that the BCB’s policy of discipline, commitment and team unity was kept throughout the tournament. The performances also were special to the Board as it shows that our policies of investing in young and vibrant persons were the right way to go as we seek to charter the future.
Captain Shawn Perreira and his Vice Captain Gudakesh Motie Kanhai also deserve special praises from the Board for their astute leadership of the team on and off the field. The BCB would like to assure all members of the team that it would continue to work hard to make sure that they develop in the correct path both at the cricketing and personal levels and they would be given every opportunity to play cricket at all levels as cricket competitions would be played in 2010 as never before.
We would also like to share this victory with all clubs and officials in Berbice who worked hard every day to make sure that our cricketers were properly prepared to play at the highest level. The Berbice Cricket Board would like to encourage all of them to continue the good work and to strive each day for higher standards.
Finally, the Berbice Cricket Board would like to salute the contribution of NCN and Tenelec Inc. whose sponsorship of Under-15 cricket in the Ancient County played a major part in this success and assisted the Board to select the best possible team for the tournament.
There can be no doubt that Berbice cricket is on the rise and we are confident that in 2010 we would make a clean sweep of all Inter County tournaments.”
