….GCB Officials Meet Club President on Fruitful Invitational Visit
A Guyana Cricket Board delegation comprising Hon. Secretary
Anand Sanasie, Assistant Administrator Melinda Bishundyal-Chaitram and Territorial Development Officer, Colin Stuart, recently met with Hilbert Foster, the Secretary and CEO for Rose Hall Town Sports and Youth Club and some club officials. The meeting stemmed from an invitational visit extended to the GCB by Hilbert Foster.
During the visit a number of mutually accepted views and positions were shared between the two entities – the GCB and Rose Hall Town Sports and Youth Club. The parties discussed a variety of cricket related matters surrounding club development and players’ empowerment, ranging from structured coaching education programmes that are similar in nature to 1st Division Clubs across the country, to club facility development, with emphasis on pitch, ground, nets and facility enhancement and very importantly, the players’ technical, physical fitness, match preparation and readiness – the players’ mental toughness or mental application capacities, the value of nutrition and lifestyle and the importance of personal development programs for club players.
The GCB found the meeting fruitful, in that both parties were able share concepts and ideas on the conduct of cricket development initiatives and programmes, and found the exercise to be mutual beneficial to both parties involved.
The Guyana Cricket Board donated four additional Kiddy Cricket Kits to the Rose Hall Town and Sports and Club, to assist in the development and promotion of its cricket nursery. Both Mr. Sanasie and Mr. Foster expressed a willingness to further co-operate and facilitate cricket development initiatives in the Berbice area.
The Guyana Cricket Board recently donated brush cutters to all first division clubs in Berbice. Last year the GCB also donated practice nets and $100,000 Dollars to these first division clubs.
