Kissoonlall, one of the club’s founders in 1990, stated that the club was pleased to honour the two young cricketers as it recognises outstanding performers during the year. The awardees were selected by the cricket development committee based on performances on the cricket field, personal discipline, attendance at practice, commitment to assist in off the field activities and willingness to learn. He noted that the club between the periods 1990 to 2022 had hosted Guyana’s largest award ceremony but ceased it after the illness of club secretary Hilbert Foster in early 2023.

Tameshwar Deonandan is the current captain of the Rose Hall Town Farfan and Mendes under15 team and has represented Guyana at the Under13 level in 2022 and 2023. This year he represented Berbice in the Guyana Cricket Board under15 inter county tournament where he served as the team vice-captain. He is a wicketkeeper and a solid middle order batsman. Deonandan currently represents the RHTYSC at the under-15, under-17, under-19, under-21, second division and the first division levels. In 2024, he scored over five hundred runs at the junior level with two attractive centuries. He struck a solid 150 vs. Whim and 126 versus RHT B as he spearheaded his team to the quarterfinals of the tournament, which would be played shortly. The RHTYSC Cricket manager hailed the personal discipline and committee of Deonandan and stated that he has a future in the game, once he remains committed.

Manns was named as female youth player for 2024 after performing well for Berbice and Guyana in the under19 team. She gained selection on the West Indies team that toured England prior to the 2025 ICC World Cup where she was a standby player. She was also named in the Berbice Senior team for 2025 inter county senior tournament and plans to work hard on her leg spin bowling with the main aim of making the senior Guyana team in the two years’ time. The sixteen-year-old Manns is currently preparing for her CSEC exam at the Lower Corentyne Secondary School and has attracted huge praise from the Club management for her active role in off the field activities.

Mr. Maikol Victor Sardihas Puig of Regal Stationery presents a Television set to Mr. Anil Beharry who collects on behalf of the club.

The RHTYSC would like to express thanks to the Management and Staff of Regal Stationery for their donation of two television sets and MR. Anil Beharry for the two bats under his Cricket Gears project. Assistant Cricket Manager MR. Keith Hicks stated that the youth cricketers of the club continue to work hard to uphold the high tradition of the RHTYSC, which was founded in 1990 by three times Guyana and Commonwealth Youth Service Awardee, the ST. Francis Xavier Roman Catholic Youth Club. The club has over the last thirty-five years produced a total of 126 players for Berbice, Guyana and the West Indies, while it has won a total of 124 tournaments including 3 national titles.
