The current administration of the Berbice Cricket Board (BCB) have been afforded the opportunity to continue their steadfast work in raising the bar of cricket in the Cinderella county after a motion was passed that would extend the life of the current board.
Elections for positions on the Executives of the Berbice Cricket Board (BCB) will now be held every two years instead of the current one year. The motion which was piloted by BCB President Hilbert Foster and members of the executive body saw the members voting 17 to 12 to amend the rules of the BCB.
The first Motion passed was for the life of the Executives to be from the 1st January to end on the 31st December the following year while the second motion will provide for the elections to be held biannually (every two years) instead of annually (every year).
The Berbice Cricket Board had earlier in the month passed two other motions to include the Rose Hall Town Youth & Sports Club and the Young Warriors Cricket Club to its Membership with a 25 to 0 vote while a 22 to 8 vote was obtained for vacancies on the BCB Executives to be filled at Special General Meetings.
The motions for accepting the two new members and vacancies on the Executives were passed on the 2nd December, 2018, while the other two were deferred to another date on the request of the West Berbice Cricket Association.
BCB President Hilbert Foster updated the delegation on the massive development taking place in the county.
The Berbice Cricket Board President urged the delegates to cooperate with each other as the main objective is to assist youths to fulfill their dreams. The duty of a Cricket Administrator is to create pathways for the next generation of players.
