GAW thrill fans with surprise appearance at Merchandise Store/Box Office

Several lucky fans had the opportunity to meet and interact with members of the Guyana Amazon Warriors team after the team made a pop-up appearance at the Merchandise Store and Ticket Office on Friday morning.
With a wide variety of merchandise on sale at affordable prices, GAW Captain Imran Tahir is urging fans to check out the store
and ticket office, which was the place to be on Friday morning, as the team — encamped ahead of the Republic Bank CPL bowling off next week — made a surprise appearance at the Camp Street venue.
While numerous fans jumped at the opportunity to meet their favourite players, the cricketers were also quite taken aback with what the merchandise store had to offer. As such, Captain Imran Tahir is urging fans to get their hands on the team merchandise, which includes replica team shirts.

“We encourage the fans, they’ve been lovely and supportive over the years, and we have no words to say thanks to them. We’re here at the Box Office, and I want to encourage the fans to come and get their merchandise. It’s on (sale at) a very reasonable price, and they’ve a wide range of clothing, everything you need to get from here. We’re all wearing, and wearing it very proudly, just like you can do,” Tahir said in a word to the Amazon Warriors fans.
The GAW captain later shifted his attention to the team’s preparation for the upcoming CPL season, touching on replicating the positive mindset that played a part in last year’s championship run.
The championship-winning Captain shared, “Amazing feeling, yeah! It’s just really nice to be back, and I hope that we go into the competition with obviously the same mindset, how we did it last year. This is a new year,(with) different challenges, but I think Guyana Amazon Warriors, as a family, we love challenges and we’re ready for it.”
While defending their title is a top priority for the Warriors, Tahir also highlighted ‘playing good cricket’ and keeping a close- knit team as other objectives.

“Look, it is different. What happened, I think it was amazing. I think amazing things obviously won’t happen easily, so you have to work hard for it. We’re not going in a mindset that we have to defend, but I think that we’re going in a mindset where we have to play cricket; which we love to play, and our supporters and the whole country appreciate that. That’s the aim really, because we want everyone to enjoy the brand of cricket we play,” Tahir shared.
He went on to add, “Yes, we do like to defend out title. We don’t want it to go away, and for that we need to work hard and just gel together like we did last year. We have a very good family, all the players know each other, we’ve been playing together for long.”
The Guyana Amazon Warriors will begin their CPL 2024 campaign next Friday, August 30th, in a clash against the Antigua and Barbuda Falcons that would take place at the Sir Viv Richards Stadium. The tournament would have bowled off the day prior with the Falcons taking on the St. Kitts and Nevis Patriots at the same venue.
