Campbelle, a member of Guyana’s leading youth and sports organisation, the RHTY&SC, and captain of its Metro Female Team, was a member of the victorious West Indies 20/20 World Cup team, which defeated Australia in the final to lift the title.
The RHTY&SC, during its 26th annual awards ceremony on April 17, would honour Campbelle with a collection of special gifts, including the airline ticket donated by Caribbean Airlines.
Secretary/CEO of the club, Hilbert Foster, expressed gratitude to Caribbean Airlines for the donation of the North American airline ticket as it would allow the RHTY&SC to properly honour Campbelle, who was described as a true and proud representative of the club and its tradition.
The club, he stated, over its short 26 years has achieved unbelievable success, but it was only the second time it has produced a world champion after Assad Fudadin was part of the West Indies Under-15 team in 2000.
Honouring its heroes on and off the cricket field, Foster stated was very important to the RHTY&SC, as the organisation strongly believes in recognising and rewarding hard work and dedication.
Campbelle, the long-serving Secretary/CEO noted, is an outstanding sports ambassador of the RHTY&SC, Berbice, Guyana and the West Indies.
Caribbean Airlines Marketing Executive, Dion Inniss, in handing over the airline ticket to Foster, stated that the airline was pleased to be associated with the club to honour Campbelle. The airline, Inniss stated, is fully aware of its corporate responsibility. He wished Campbelle and the RHTYSC the best in the future.
