Kaieteur Sports – Regal Masters and Regal Legends will partake in the 18th edition of the New York Softball Cricket League (NYSCL) annual Independence Cup with the full backing of the Muslim Youth Organization of Guyana (MYO).
This support was very evident last Saturday when representatives of MYO joined forces with members of the Regal cricket teams to pull off a major fundraising venture for the bunch of cricketers heading to New York for the June 30 to July 2 tournament.
Lead by President of MYO, Bro Azad Ibrahim with support from Bro Imran Ally of I and S Trading and Bro Fazal the take away bar-b-que was an overwhelming success. More than 2000 tickets were sold and catered for which was due mainly to the collaboration.
In an invited comment, Ibrahim said that both teams include quality players and he wishes the teams nothing but success. “Knowing the abilities of the guys [on both teams], I am confident that they will bring home both of the trophies. So I wish them best of luck in everything they do.”
The management of the Regal Cricket teams also thanked the supporters who purchased tickets to ensure the trip to the Big Apple is a success. The profits garnered will help to offset some of the expenses such as flights, accommodation, meals and transportation for the 40-member contingent comprising players and officials. Team owner and Managing Director of Regal Stationery and Computer Centre, Mahendra Hardyal was high in praises for the support from MYO and is confident of lifting the trophies as well. “Those guys at MYO gave us tremendous assistance on Saturday. Without them we could not have done it. It was a true team effort,” Hardyal stated.
On his sides’ chances of success, the businessman simply said, “we have some high profile players on both sides that are eager to do well.”
Regal Legends (over-50s) are the defending champions while Regal Masters (over-40s) are making their debut this year. Both teams are in good spirits and are set to represent the Golden Arrowhead and the One Guyana concept proudly as sporting ambassadors.
