RHTY&SC Pepsi and Bakewell Cricket teams assist Football and Volleyball Clubs

Aug 06, 2015 Sports

The Rose Hall Town Youth & Sports Club’s Pepsi Under-19 and Bakewell Under-17 Cricket Teams on Monday last assisted the Heart of Oaks Football Team of New Amsterdam Region 6 and the Kewdana Village Volleyball Club of Region 1.
The teams, as part of their personal development programme and the Rose Hall Town Youth & Sports Club Silver Jubilee Anniversary Celebration, donated several football trophies, a carton of food boxes and fifty copies of the Club’s Youth Information to the football club for its Annual Teach them Young Football Camp. The cricket teams also donated a volleyball and volleyball net to the youths of the Region 1 club after a request was made to the Rose Hall Town Youth & Sports Club. Twelve copies of the Information booklet were also handed over to the Kewbana youths to assist them in their development.
Club Secretary/CEO Hilbert Foster praised the club for being agents of positive change and noted that the Rose Hall Town Youth & Sports Club was the only cricket club in Guyana who actively involves its members to reach out and touch the lives of others. Each year, the eight cricket teams of the Rose Hall Town Youth & Sports Club undertake a total of 160 activities with the main aim of making a positive difference in the lives of youths, the elderly and less fortunate. These activities are undertaken under the sub-headings of sports, charity, educational, anti-drugs, youth development and community development among others. The long serving Club Secretary/CEO hailed the work of the Heart of Oaks Football Club under the leadership of Neil Humphrey as a role model organisation and expressed pleasure at assisting them to successfully host the 2015 Camp which has attracted over 80 youths in the New Amsterdam/Canje area.
The Kewbana area requested assistance to get the volleyball gears, so that the youths can use sports as a safe avenue away from drugs and crime. Foster urged the two organisations to redouble their efforts and to always strive for excellence. He also committed the Rose Hall Town Youth & Sports Club and the cricket teams to assisting in the future with sport gears and trophies. He also promised to obtain sponsorship for a Youth Football Tournament as part of the Club’s “Say No To Drugs Campaign”.
Neil Humphrey of Hearts of Oak Football Club and Stanley Alexander who received the volleyball equipment on behalf of the youths of Kewbana expressed gratitude to the Rose Hall Town Youth & Sports Club and its cricket teams.
