BCB unveil 20 overs tourney…Lower/Central Corentyne Zone starts tomorrow

Nov 20, 2012 Sports

The Berbice Cricket Board (BCB) continues to fulfill its commitment to cricket teams in the Ancient County with the unveiling of a 20 overs tournament for teams in the Lower/Central Corentyne Zone.
Earlier this year, the Board had committed itself to organising tournaments for teams within the five Zones in an effort to return cricket to the grassroots. Some have already been played for teams in Berbice River, West Berbice, New Amsterdam/Canje and Upper Corentyne and with this latest one for the Lower/Central Corentyne; it fulfills the BCB’s commitment.
Chairman of the Special Events Committee, Hilbert Foster, stated that they are quite delighted at the support of the general public to all tournaments and more so, at the zone level. The Board is seeking to organize a 40 overs tourney also for teams in this area and Foster is urging all clubs to put proper structures in place for the playing of nonstop cricket.
Some 27 teams will participate including Rose Hall Town, Chesney, Albion, Belvedere, Jai Hind, Guysuco Training Centre and Mibicuri Sports Club. Each would only be allowed to play one first division player in each match while the games would be played in white clothing and red balls.
