Free admission and CPL ticket giveaways at finals of Kares T10
Fans in the stands walked away with numerous prizes in 2023
FL Sport, organisers of the Kares One Guyana T10 Tapeball Blast 2024, have indicated in a media release that the Green Stand at the National Stadium at Providence, EBD will be open for patrons on Saturday (August 24) for the finals. And if the Green Stand becomes filled, the Red Stand would be opened.
FL Sport have reminded that admission is free for all matches, patrons can win tickets to Caribbean Premier League matches in Guyana, and smartphones can also be won, compliments of ENet.
According to the Director of FL Sport, John Ramsingh, the tournament has its genesis in the desire to give back to players and fans of the sport, and therefore, whenever corporate Guyana pumps the desired support to that entity, both intended recipients would benefit immensely.
Apart from the $3.4M in cash that would be distributed in various prizes to teams and players, fans at the National Stadium would be in for a treat.
“CPL starts (on) August 28, and this tournament is certainly a jump-start to the Biggest Party in Sport. We will hand out tickets to matches involving the Amazon Warriors, but the only way you can win it is to be in the stands.”
Ramsingh has reminded patrons and players that, while admission is free, glass bottles and firearms would not be allowed in the stadium.
The first semi-final, set for 15:00h, would be contested between Montra Jaguars and Mahdia (Movements Family), while the match following would be contested between Titans All-Stars and Diamond Gunners at 17:00h.
The exhibition match is from 19:00h, and the final is from 20:30h.
Each of the losing semi-finalists on August 24 will take home $250,000, compliments of Premier Insurance.
Second-place, from SuperBet Guyana, is worth $500,000; and the winner pockets $1.5M from Star Rentals.
Moreover, players will vie for the titles of Most Runs, Most Wickets, and Player of the Final. Each winner would receive a Smart TV and a $75,000 cash prize, compliments of Regal Stationery and Computer Centre.
Assuria Insurance will present a motorbike, and $85,000 will go to the Most Valuable Player.
Additionally, $100,000 would be split equally between the Kawasaki Super Striker of the tournament (player with the highest strike rate — minimum of 12 balls) and the Most Economical bowler (lowest economy rate — minimum of 24 balls).
Admission to the venue is free.
