The two teams which would serve as the nursery for the Rose Hall Town Poonai Pharmacy Under-13 and the Rose Hall Town Farfan & Mendes Under-15 teams would play matches against Primary Schools from across Region Six.
Several Inter-Primary School tournaments would be organised in 2018 while the players would be involved in numerous coaching sessions with the aim of developing their cricketing skills.
Each of the players involved in the trials received educational materials while outstanding players received trophies and special prizes.
Foster is urging interesting Under-12 players born after September 1st, 2006 to contact the club on telephone number 337 4562 or email: [email protected].
