Over $100,000 in cash and prizes will be at stake during the day’s activities. Apart from trophies, the champion team will receive a ram sheep, while the losing finalist will collect a ram goat.
According to a release from the ULSC, balls will be provided for the competition, which is open to all teams. The entrance fee per team is $1,200 and interested teams can register by contacting ULSC’s member R. Goolghar on 671-9076.
The ULSC release stated, “The achievements of the club during the past year include erecting billboards to honour cricket legend Shivnarine Chanderpaul and past president Chetram Singh, launching a cricket academy for the youths, holding a fun park for children in the community, acquiring a boxing gym, holding a raffle and improving the main pavilion and the ground by expending more than $500,000, purchasing uniforms for the club’s Under-15, Under-19, senior and Over-40 teams, handing out bursaries to top SSEE students and equipping the pavilion with chairs and domino tables.”
The club will also establish a karate section shortly, as well as organise gifts for hundreds of children during the upcoming Christmas season and give free lessons to students preparing for SSEE. A medical outreach and blood drive are also part of the club’s plans.
