Following several rounds of matches Police SC and GNIC SC sit atop of Group A and B respectively in the Georgetown Cricket Association (GCA) Trophy Stall, Star Party Rentals and GISE first division two-day tournament. All tournaments have been put on hold due to the current inclement weather.

In zone B, GNIC SC have 62 from four games, while University of Guyana (UG) are on 57 from three followed by Transport SC 43 from three, Gandhi Youth Organisation 36 from three and Guyana Defence Force 24 from three.
Police Sports Club consistency continued in the Noble House Sea Foods second division two-day competition, chalking 102 points from five games to lead zone A. Malteenoes SC have 77 from five ahead of UG 55 from four, Ace Warriors 54 from five, Sophia 44 from three, GNIC SC 28 from three and GDF five from one.
Everest CC with 99 points from 5 games head zone B, while Transport SC are in second position on 97 from five games, DCC have 92 from four followed by GYO 70 from five, GCC 47 from three and Diplomats 28 from four.
University of Guyana with 118 points from six games currently lead zone A in the New Building Society second division 40-over tournament followed by Police with 116 from seven, Transport SC on 83 from five, Everest CC 57 from six, Muslim Youth Organisation 55 from five, Ace Warriors 44 from six, Diplomats 22 from six and GDF 18 from four.

The inaugural V Net Communications U13 tournament saw a number of matches being played so far and DCC with 40 points from two games lead the points table. Bel Air with 23 points from two games are in second place followed by Transport SC with 15 from two and GCC two from two. Teams will play each other thrice with the top two going through to the final.
Chairman of the competitions committee Shaun Massiah told Kaieteur Sport yesterday that all tournaments will resume as soon as the weather changes and said the unavailability of grounds is one of the major factors affecting the GCA. One of the venues in the city that has not been upgraded for close to a decade is the Transport Sports Club ground and due to this its members have to resort to the tarmac or neighbouring grounds for training. The players there have voiced their concerns on several occasions which have gone unheard and are calling on the relevant authorities to upgrade the facility so they can be better prepared for matches. He also lamented on the lack of adequate covers at most venues.
Massiah said they will be looking to stage a first division 50-over and T20 as well as a second division T20 and an U15 tournament in the coming season but would need corporate support.
