Ronsford Beaton
Guyana and Essequibo cricketer Ronsford Beaton has been recognised by the Region Two RDC for his recent selection to the West Indies team that will contest the ICC Under-19 World Cup in Australia.
The 19 year-old Beaton, an exciting fast bowler from the Cinderella County was complimented for his progressive and outstanding contributions to the sport and for standing out as a son of the Cinderella County.
He was presented with a token and trophy by the Region Two Administration on Wednesday last at the Regional Statutory meeting.
Whilst acknowledging the gesture by the Regional Administration in recognising his contributions, Beaton stated that the upcoming tour to Australia next month should not be too hard a task since he is an experienced player having represented Guyana at the First Class level before.
“Being the lone Essequibian on the team I am going to do my best to make both Essequibo and Guyana proud.”
Beaton started playing cricket at the age of 16 moving on to represent Guyana at the Under-17, 19 and senior levels.
