Kares T10 Blast: Over $500,000 payout for quarter-finalists at Enmore

…Finals shifted to August 24

In a bid to ensure players continue to reap the rewards of competing in the second season of the Kares One Guyana T10 Tapeball Blast, FL Sport has upped the stakes for the quarter-finals, set for Sunday August 11 at the Enmore Community Centre Ground, East Coast Demerara.
The organisers have also indicated that, due to unforeseen circumstances and based on discussions with sponsors, the finals and Cricket For Charity match involving President Dr. Irfaan Ali have been brought forward to Saturday, August 24.
“In 2023, we stated we want to ensure we give back more to players and fans, and this year, we have increased all of the prizes and added a hefty quarter-final payout. Each of the eight teams at Enmore will be rewarded”, John Ramsingh, Director of FL Sport, has said.
According to Ramsingh, each of the four winners would pocket $100,000, while each loser would get $30,000, for a total payout of $520,000, sponsored by the Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sport.
He elaborated that, at minimum, each of these eight teams would recoup their entrance fee of $25,000, while the winner would receive an early bonus.
Each of the losing semi-finalists on August 24 will take home $250,000, compliments of Premier Insurance.

Second-place: $500,000 from SuperBet Guyana, and the winner pockets $1.5M from Star Rentals. More so, players would vie for the titles of Most Runs, Most Wickets, and Player of the Final. Each winner would receive a Smart TV and a $75,000 cash prize, compliments of Regal Stationery and Computer Centre.
Assuria Insurance would present a motorbike, and $85,000 would go to the Most Valuable Player. Additionally, $100,000 would be split equally between the Kawasaki Super Striker of the tournament (player with the highest strike rate — minimum of 12 balls) and the Most Economical bowler (lowest economy rate — minimum of 24 balls).
This would see more than G$3.4M being distributed in cash prizes.
The quarter-final matches are Team Corruption vs. Montra Jaguars at 09:30h, Tarmac Titans vs. Mahdia at 11:30h, Titans All-Stars vs. The Guards at 13:30h, and Brooklyn Youth Strikers vs. Diamond Gunners at 15:30h.
