GCB steps in to avert crisis
The Guyana Cricket Board (GCB) has taken swift action to ensure that cricket is not disrupted in the Inter-County Under-17 Tournament which is currently underway.
GCB steps in to avert crisis
A release from the board stated, ‘The GCB learnt yesterday that 16 persons from the Berbice Cricket Board (BCB) have been prevented from functioning as the Executives of the Berbice Cricket Board. The GCB is of the firm view that, irrespective of the challenges facing that or any other Board, cricket must not be affected. The GCB has been in contact with the parents of several players and they have all agreed that the games should not be disrupted regardless of the legal challenge against that Body.’
It continued, ‘The team was already selected by the BCB prior to its Executives being injuncted, and the GCB will take steps to ensure that the Tournament is successfully concluded with the participation of all the youth teams. All related expenses would be absorbed by the GCB in this regard.
The GCB recognizes that this is an internal matter of the BCB and urges all stakeholders to seek a prompt resolution while respecting the order of the court.’
