Sentinel Security joins a long list of sponsors as the lighting towers are mounted at the famous Albion Sports Complex for the BCB/BCC&DA Guyana’s Independence T20 Cup 2014 to be held on Sunday May 25, 2014. This edition promises to be the biggest ever, it will for the first time be played under international quality floodlights. There will be two semifinals with Berbice ‘A’ taking on Berbice ‘B’ from 11:00am followed three hours later by Georgetown Cricket Association taking on BK East Coast Jaguars.
Priya Rampersaud of Sentinel Security Inc hands over the cheque to Cosmatia Lindie.
The winners will battle in the final from 7:00pm under lights for bragging rights, trophies and cash incentives. Preceding the final will be a feature softball match between Oldenhoff Carriers and D’Edward of West Berbice. As usual, proceeds from this event will go to several charitable organizations, schools and cricket clubs.
The BCB and BCC&DA will share the balance equally to fulfill their respective mandates. This gala event will form part of the Region’s celebration for Independence and will surely boost local tourism in the County since many fans from Suriname are expected.
