A series of trial matches were arranged after the inaugural GCB Under-13 40 overs inter-county tournament was cancelled on Saturday, December 3 due to persistent and heavy rainfall across the country. The four matches organized will be used to select a Guyana Under-13 squad to participate in a bilateral series against a touring Trinidad and Tobago Under-13 team scheduled to arrive in Guyana on Friday, December 9. The two teams will play four (4) matches between December 10 and 18.

The GCB plans to add the Under-13 inter-county to its calendar of activities in which it would be an annual event; this is in keeping with the five (5) year development plan outlined by this new administration.
