The Rose Hall Town Youth & Sports Club continues to assist other organisations to fulfill their mandates by making contributions to them. The Club’s Cricket Teams under their personal development programme donated $100, 000 worth of trophies and prizes to five sports organisations during their 23rd Annual Awards Ceremony on Sunday last.
The teams – Farfan & Mendes Under-15, Bakewell Under-17 and Second Division, Pepsi Under-19, Metro Female and Gizmos & Gadgets Under-21 and first division in 2013 have committed themselves to a total of 100 personal development programmes under which the teams would seek to make a personal difference in the lives of youths, the elderly and less fortunate.
The organisations that benefitted were the Berbice Cricket Board, Lower Corentyne Secondary School, Mibicuri Cricket club, Rose Hall Athletic Club and the Guyana Umpires Council. The Secondary School received two volleyballs on a request from them, while the Berbice Cricket Board collected four trophies for the upcoming Independence T/20 Tournament. The teams also donated a set of white cricket balls, trophies and gifts to the Guyana Umpires Council for a fund raising cricket match, while $40, 000 worth of trophies was given to the Mibicuri Cricket Club for a major tournament for clubs in Black Bush Polder. The Rose Hall Town Athletic Club received a set of trophies and prizes to assist them to host their first ever athletic event at the Area “H” ground held on May Day.
Club Secretary/CEO Hilbert Foster stated that every year sports NGOs, clubs and schools across the ancient county of Berbice receive assistance from the Rose Hall Town Youth & Sports Club to assist them to make sure that youths have equal opportunities to educational and sports careers. Foster urged the groups to use the donations for the intended purposes and also to use every available opportunity to promote the message of No to Drugs and Yes to Education.
He also pledged that the Rose Hall Town Youth & Sports club would continue to work hard to assist other clubs in the future.
