DCB/GFSCA Inter Association U19 Championship to conclude on Saturday

The Demerara Cricket Board /GFSCA Inter Association Under-19 cricket competition will be concluded on Saturday at the historic venue of the Demerara Cricket Club (DCC) from 09.30 hrs.
In a new DCB initiative, the winning Georgetown Cricket Association will take on a combined team of the other four associations that took part in the competition. This will give the DCB youth selection panel a perfect opportunity to see the top thirty under-19 players in the county.
The DCB under-19 team will soon compete in the Guyana Cricket Board’s Inter-County Under-19 Championship, and will be led by Alvin Mohabir. In the line-up would be West Indies youth player Mavindra Dindial, versatile young athlete Jonathan Van Lange, and leading run scorer Romeo Deonarain, who played only three games.
National youth player Sachin Balgobin will captain the “best of the rest” team, which would include the top wicket-taker Krisna Singh and several other national junior cricketers. Among those would be: Nicholas Shiopersad, Vikash Wilkinson, Anthony Khan, Nityanand Mathura and Arun Gainda.

This competition would be sponsored by Trophy Stall, Ramchand’s Auto Spares, Ariel Enterprise, Rohan Auto Spares, Steve’s Jewelry, Petama Enterprise, Motor Trend, Cricket Equipment Guyana, General Marines, Terry Mathura, Raj Mathura and Pandit Anand Persaud, who are all members of the GFSCA family.
GFSCA is known for pioneering softball cricket in Guyana and overseas. The tournament involves the five associations: Upper Demerara, East Bank, East Coast, West Demerara, and Georgetown, and was played on a round-robin format, with the Georgetown Cricket Association emerging the winner after playing unbeaten, giving them the right to take on a “Best of the rest” team.
This tournament is the main yardstick used by the selection panel to select the Demerara team for the GCB Inter-County Under-19 Tournament.
