May 12, 2016 Sports

Teams desirous of participating in the Georgetown Softball Cricket League Inc/National Sports Commission Independence T20 tournament have up until tomorrow to register.

The competition is set to commence on May 20 and conclude on May 22 with matches being played at the Malteenoes SC and GNIC SC.
The tournament will be played in the open and masters’ categories with an entrance fee of $50,000. The winning team in the open segment will pocket a trophy and $100,000 and the runner up a trophy and $50,000. The masters’ champion will take home a trophy and $150,000 and the runner up a trophy and $50,000. The launching and draw will take place on May 17 at 17:00hrs at GNIC SC.
This year marks Guyana’s 50th independence anniversary and the competition has already started to generate much hype among the fans since some of the nation’s leading players will be on show. Double Guyana Softball Cup champions Regal is definitely one of the favourites, but they are expected to face stiff opposition from the likes of Wolf’s Warriors and Floodlight among others.
Among the players expected to grace the tournament are Guyana Softball Cup 5 open MVP Richard Latif, Chien Gittens, Safraz Esau, Fazal Rafiek, Amrit Rai, Azeez Azeez, Vishun Tammechandra, Greg Singh and Lennox Marks in the open division. Likely to feature in the masters category are Mahendra Hardyal, Raymond Harper, Ricky Deonarine, Mike Singh, Mohamed Rafeek, Richard Persaud, Yunnis Yusuf and Eon Abel.
The first six teams to be registered in the open and eight in the masters will be accepted, and teams can contact GSCL Inc Assistant Secretary/Treasurer Russel Jadbeer on 225-4802, Mahendra Hardyal on 610-7902 or Samuel Kingston on 619-5103 for registration.
Among the sponsors so far onboard are Regal Stationery and Computer Centre and Regal Sport.
