AJM Enterprise adding quality, professionalism to West Berbice cricket

…Plans in place for countrywide cricket tournament

Cotton Tree Cricket Club were crowned champions of the AJM Enterprise Mash It Up T20 tournament, which was played last weekend at the Bush Lot Sports Complex Ground in Region Five (Mahaica-Berbice).
The tournament lived up to expectations, and went beyond expectations, as it turned out to be a packed event in which thousands of viewers from across the world were locked in to view the matches on livestream.
After the successful payout of a one-million-dollar first prize, AJM Enterprise has indicated that it would continue to play a role in the development of cricket from West Berbice to all parts of Guyana, as plans are in place to host a countrywide cricket tournament.

The recently concluded tournament provided a marketing platform for young players in the West Berbice area to showcase their talent to the world. The likes of Guyana Under-15 player Arif Khan, Leon Swamy and Shamal Angel were the youngsters who gained from the AJM Mash It Up T20 tournament.
“It is competitive cricket. Not because it is a second division tournament, and it won’t be competitive. There are a lot of youngsters in the tournament, it is a great tournament, and I am happy to play in it,” Swamy said after he blasted 87 for Cotton Tree.
Cotton Tree captain Roshan Gaffoor expressed similar sentiments in relation to the high quality of cricket played in the AJM tournament.
“First of all, we must thank AJM for sponsoring such a wonderful tournament. To invest in so much cash and prizes. This encouraged cricketers in the West Berbice area to play, because the game was dying in the region. Now with the introduction of the AJM Tournament, people want to play cricket,” Gaffoor said.
Player of the final, Kevon Jawahir, also spoke highly of the level of cricket being played in the AJM tournament. “In this tournament, you have a lot of franchise players, first-division players, playing; and at this second-division level, it is really good,” Jawahir said.
