He added that while the club has not yet produced a West Indies senior cricketer, he is certain that Shimron will be the first and called on parents to get their young kids involved in the game. He said that there are no fees to join the club and young cricketers should take full advantage.
Other sponsors so far are: Bank of Nova Scotia, Ashraf Ali of Ashiek and Son Motor Supplies and Auto Sales, Republic Bank, The New Building Society Ltd, Jim Bacchus Travel Service, Magistrate Chandra Sohan and Sharples Furniture Establishment.
The tournament will be played on Mash day, a national holiday and will be of five overs aside. Incentives worth over $150,000 will be up for grabs. Gate prizes will be at stake as well.
