Hand-in-Hand on board with Precision Sports’ women’s tournament
Gearing up for its inaugural staging this August, the Precision Sports T-15 Women’s Cricket Tournament is already gaining traction with sponsors on board.
Hand-in-Hand Mutual Fire and Life Insurance is among the recent sponsors to join what will be a transformative event for Women’s Cricket in Guyana. It recently made a presentation to organiser Nidia Andrews.
The Precision Sports T-15 Women’s Cricket Tournament is set to take place at the LBI Community Centre Ground, East Coast Demerara (ECD) August 9-16, 2025.
According to organisers, this exciting event aims to elevate women’s cricket in the region by providing local players with invaluable exposure, development opportunities, and the chance to showcase their skills on a bigger stage.
One of the key features of the tournament is the screening session that will bring together players from Essequibo, Demerara, and Berbice who will compete for a spot on a select team representing Guyana. By selecting the best talent from across the country, the tournament will be encouraging the development of local players.

Teams from Trinidad and Tobago will also be competing, offering a dynamic mix of regional talent. This cross-border participation is expected to raise the level of competition and help foster stronger cricketing ties between the Caribbean nations.
Precision Sports further explained that the primary aim of the T-15 Women’s Cricket Tournament was to create more playing opportunities for Guyanese women cricketers. With limited platforms for women’s cricket in the country, this tournament serves as a stepping stone for players to gain the exposure that they deserve. By offering a competitive environment, the tournament provides an opportunity to highlight the skill, dedication, and passion of women cricketers, which is often overshadowed in mainstream sports.
Furthermore, the event will drive the development of the women’s cricket scene in Guyana, nurturing young talent and offering a pathway to recognition and higher levels of competition. It’s a major step forward in building a sustainable cricketing culture for women in the country.
