The Under-17 final between Rose Hall Community Centre and Port Mourant will be played in late February.
The BCB debar list for 2026 was reviewed and will be published shortly. All rules for junior tournaments have been revised/reviewed and will be published shortly.
Second division and first division rules will also be reviewed to avoid/prevent any loopholes in the system. The BCB under-16 inter-club competition is nearly at the quarter-final stage, as well as the Anil Lalsa second division countywide competition.
The Rose Hall Town Youth and Sports Club will play Albion Community Centre at Port Mourant (a neutral venue) to determine the zone winner. Both teams ended with similar outright wins, as well as first-innings wins in the two-innings-per-side tournament run by the BCB.
All rules governing the transfer of players in 2026 will also be reviewed.
