Thousands of children would also be given the opportunity to have smiles on their faces.

The promising and highly talented all rounder stated that the ten cricket teams are very proud of the fact that the RHTYSC is the only cricket club in the Caribbean that mandates its players to make positive differences in the lives of others. The Club in 2018 would have completed a total of 718 programmes/activities by the 31st December, 2018.
