GCB donates under-13 cricket equipment to county boards

The Essequibo Team

The Guyana Cricket Board (GCB) on Tuesday donated a set of under-13 cricket equipment to Demerara and Essequibo at the national Gymnasium. The small presentation was done after the third trial match was played between the two teams.
A series of trial matches has been arranged after the inaugural GCB Under-13 40-overs Inter-County Tournament was cancelled on Saturday, December 3, due to persistent heavy rainfall across the country. The four matches organized will be used to select a Guyana Under-13 squad to participate in a bilateral series against a touring Trinidad and Tobago Under-13 team, scheduled to arrive in Guyana on Friday, December 9. The two teams will play four (4) matches between December 10 and 18.

The Demerara Team

The GCB plans to add the Under-13 Inter-County to its calendar of activities, making it an annual event. This is in keeping with the five-year development plan outlined by this new administration.
Present at the handing over ceremony were GCB Secretary Ronald Williams, Assistant Secretary Davteerth Anandjit, Territorial Development Officer/Admin Assistant Kavita Yadram, and Junior Selection Panel Chairman Andre Percival.
The GCB will hand over gear to the Berbice team during their match against Demerara.
