Eleven first division teams: West Berbice, Police, Blairmont, Tucber Park, Rose Hall Canje, Young Warriors, Albion, Port Mourant, RHT Namilco Thunderbolt Flour, Upper Corentyne and Skeldon, would participate in this T20 tournament, which would be played on a knockout basis.
Defending champions Young Warriors have drawn the bye for the first round.
This tournament is being played in memory of the late Ivan Madray, who on May 2, 1958 became the third Berbician to play Test cricket, after John Trim and Rohan Kanhai. Madray’s nephew Chandradat Chintamani is sponsoring the tournament in memory of the Berbician legend who, sadly, passed away on April 23, 2009.
Teams are reminded that walkovers would be awarded half an hour after the scheduled start of play at 1:00pm (13:00hrs), and that captains who are not present to spin the toss at 12.45pm would forfeit the toss.
Moreover, the BCB expects all teams to be properly attired in coloured uniform.
