Oct 03, 2012 Sports

Several softball cricket teams will congregate at the Tennis Court, Main and New Street, New Amsterdam at 16:30hrs today when the Berbice Chamber of Commerce and Development Association (BCCDA) launches the third edition of the Corporate Business in Sports (CBIS) Inter-Agency Softball cricket tournament scheduled to get underway on October 27 next at the Albion Sports Complex.
Participating teams are Banks DIH Limited, Oldendorff Carriers, Republic Bank Limited, Guysuco, New Building Society, Metro Office and Computer Supplies, Nand Persaud Group of Companies, Demerara Bank, Guyana Telephone Company Limited, Neal and Massey Group of Companies, Demerara Distilleries Limited, Beharry Group of Companies and the Guyana Power and Light. Another team, the Regional Chairman XI, will also vie for honours.
The competition will comprise matches in the 10/10 and 20/20 format with managers drawn from the participating entities competing in the former format while several 20/20 matches as well as an exhibition match in this format involving the cream of the crop out of the Ancient County will also be contested.
The organizers further intimated that the event is aimed at promoting unity while fostering better working relationships between the business entities and the public. Patrons will be able to merge with professionals the likes of bankers, managers, lawyers, cashiers and clerks among others as the general consensus seems to suggest improved relationships among all stakeholders ever since the introduction of the initiative.
Captains of participating teams are asked to grace the opening ceremony dressed in T-shirts with their company logos to meet with sponsors of the event even as they are briefed of the modalities of the tournament by the organizers.
Teams desirous of acquiring additional details are asked to contact officials at the Chamber (333-3324). Proceeds from the event will be donated to several charitable organizations.
