Mar 03, 2024 Sports

Kaieteur Sports – The Inaugural Inter Region Ten10 Softball Cricket Tournament is slated to take place from March 3-17, 2024, and plans are moving positively forward according to Roraima Community Developers.

According to the national coordinator of the tournament, R. C. D has already identified its regional coordinators and they are working on putting systems in place as to the venues, team registration and the other things that will be needed at various venues in the regions taking part.

According to the coordinator, teams from regions 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 have already indicated that they will be participating. He said that they are working to have teams from the other regions participate in this inter-region tournament.

The R.C.D official lamented that the tournament will be played in an open category because over the years softball cricket has seen a tremendous decline nationally and that is because of the categorizing of the local cricket, where many could not get involved in the games regionally and nationally because of age range.

According to the official, they see this tournament as a grassroots one and in bringing back softball to the village level. While its aim and objective is to bring our people together as one.

They further said that sport plays a very integral part in binding our people and mounding our youths towards a positive future.

The tournament will see all age groups participating within the teams that will be taking part and each region will have its competition to crown its champion.

According to Roraima Community Developers the teams competing regionally will be vying also for trophies and cash incentives. The winning team in each region will battle against each other for the same but most importantly for the national championship bragging rights.

According to R.C.D officials, the tournament will see cash prizes and trophies up for grabs and at a later release going to make public the regional and national prizes to be awarded during and after the tournament.

The tournament will be played on a ten overs aside, round arm bowling and in a one-game knockout format.

Softball teams around Guyana that are interested in taking part are asked to start preparations for the Inter Region Tournament which is expected to bowl off on Sunday 3rd March at various venues across the country.

Roraima Community Developers said that the contact numbers for each regional coordinator will be made public in the next press release. While R.C.D can be contacted by telephone on 657-5612 or via email developersroraima@gmail.com

The officials are hoping for full cooperation from all as they are using this tournament to bring our people together in unity through sports in building a One Guyana.
