Newly elected Young Warriors Cricket Club President, Imran Saccoor
The club was recently re-admitted by the Berbice Cricket Board (BCB) after it was inadvertently left out of the Cricket Administration Bill.
President of the BCB, Hilbert Foster, witnessed the process. He congratulated the club for the move and wished its members well. He said it is time the club move further after producing its first senior international player.
The elected members, in response, congratulated the President and the BCB for their hard work, and pledged their support.
Immediate plans for this club are: to purchase covers for the pitch, buy a new tractor, and build an all-weather practice facility. The club welcomes any assistance from former players, its friends known and unknown, private individuals, and corporate Guyana.
