Veteran scorer Ron Legall resigns from GCB functions

Jul 13, 2011 Sports

Veteran official book-scorer, statistician and secretary of the Cricket Development Committee of the Guyana Cricket Board, Ron Legall, has called it a day with the GCB citing a number of improprieties in the operation of the board over the past two years as his reason for quitting.
In his letter to the president of the GCB, Legall stated, “I have been associated with the Guyana Cricket Board as their official book-scorer, statistician and secretary of the Cricket Development Committee for the accumulation of over forty-seven (47) years and I have never experienced such disenchanted, disgraceful and totally unaccepted typed of management, especially in the last two years and six-months.”
The very critical and outspoken Legall continued, “It was very shameful and non-professional.  The standards displayed by some of the most senior executives of the board would not have been accepted by any respectable organisation in any other part of this world.  Therefore I have decided to inform you that I will not be interested in the continuation as Secretary of the CDC or any other office that this new board may be considering for me.”
This move by Legall ends a long and distinguished career as a scorer and statistician in cricket, which covered many local, regional and Test matches.
