He added that softball cricket usually brings out the entire family and he is looking forward to a decent turn out. He stated that cricket is one sport that promotes unity and such he is looking forward to a successful competition.
The tournament is being organised to coincide with the birth anniversary of Roberts, Keon Junior and Keola Roberts.
