Young Warriors Cricket Club congratulates Shimron Hetmyer
The executives and players of the Cumberland, East Canje based Young Warriors Cricket Club
Shimron Hetmyer
congratulates their 18 year old Shimron Hetmyer on his selection in the Amazon Warriors playing squad for the upcoming Caribbean Premier League. The club said that this recent selection is another step for Shimron as he marches on to soon wear West Indies colours.
The club which was resuscitated just over 12 years ago has produced many junior and senior national players and even West Indies junior cricketers but never a West Indies senior player. The release stated that they are confident that Shimron will be the first one to represent West Indies senior team.
Shimron’s talent was spotted by coach Hubern Evans, himself a former national cricketer, since he was just 7 years old and from then he was invited to join the club. Since then, he never looked back and made significant and rapid progress despite his age. He has always performed above his age group and impressed all that saw him play cricket.
The club wishes him well in his future and prays that God will guide him. The club also hopes that Shimron’s achievement will inspire others in the Canje area.
The club is inviting cricketers of all ages to join free of cost. Contact can made with Coach Evans on 624-3275, Coach Kwesi Maltay on 695-2007 and Manager Sahadeo Singh on 617-1103.
