Kaieteur Sports- Following a weekend of compelling action in Berbice, the Kares One Guyana T10 Tapeball Blast will now focus on the East Bank and West Demerara zones.
Despite weather disruptions necessitating venue adjustments, the Berbice leg delivered on its promise, showcasing a wealth of talent.
Montra Jaguars emerged as the dominant force from the Berbice cluster, securing their passage to the national finals at the Guyana National Stadium.
The question now is: who will join them?
This weekend, 16 teams will compete in the East Bank Demerara/West Demerara zone, all vying for a coveted spot in the national finals.
The teams set to compete are Diamond Gunners, Soesdyke XI, Eccles All-Stars, 592 Gunners, Hyde Park, Young Guns, Laluni, Timehri Sports Club, Visionary Vipers (from Saxacalli), Trendsetters, The Guard, Stripling Warriors, Tourism Guyana Titans, Young Steppaz, CJIA Warriors, and K&B All-Stars.
Organisers have indicated that the persistent inclement weather may lead to further venue changes.
Updates will be announced as soon as confirmations are made.
Some matches may be staged in Laluni, aligning with the tournament’s objective of bringing cricket to various communities across Guyana.
Beyond the prestige of reaching the national final, the zone champion will also be rewarded with a significant prize of $300,000 and a specially commissioned trophy.
They will then be able to compete for a further $1.7 million in the national finals. The runner-up in the zone final will also receive a substantial prize of $100,000.
The stakes will be even higher at the national finals. The runner-up will take home $700,000, along with a trophy and medals, while the two losing semi-finalists will each receive $300,000.
The tournament will continue with the Georgetown/East Coast Demerara zone scheduled for July 19th and 20th, followed by the Essequibo zone on July 26th and 27th. The grand national finals are slated for Sunday, August 3rd.
