KC Singh, MMP Foundation reward Rampersaud with cricket gear

Guyanese youth cricketer Jonathan Rampersaud has benefited from cricket gear donated by overseas-based Guyanese KC Singh, in collaboration with the Mohabir Mookorchand Persaud (MMP) Foundation.
At a simple presentation at the stylish Fancy’s Outlet on Wednesday last, Rampersaud was delighted to receive high-quality cricket gear.
The items presented to Rampersaud include a large gear bag with wheels, three cricket bats, one pair of batting pad with colour covering, one thigh pad, one pair of batting gloves, hand guard, one pair of spikes and a flop hat, among other equipment.

Rampersaud, who plays for the Rose Hall Town Youth and Sport Club, was a former student of the JC Chandisingh Secondary School, where he excelled and demonstrated great balance with cricket and academics. He copped nine grade one and two grade two passes in the eleven subjects he sat at the 2020 Caribbean Secondary Examination Certificate (CSEC).
He is currently a first-year student at the University of Guyana, where he has been awarded a four-year scholarship by the same MMP Foundation to pursue a degree.
At a tender age, the humble Rampersaud had shown his academic ability by attaining 499 marks at the Common Entrance (Grade Six) examinations, and was awarded a place at the illustrious President’s College. However, due to financial struggles, he was sent to the JC Chandisingh Secondary, which is close to his home at Portuguese Quarters, Port Mourant.
The former West Indies Under-15 selectee is currently training under strict COVID-19 protocols, and is preparing for the upcoming Guyana Cricket Board (GCB) Under-19 inter-county tournament, which is tentatively set for a mid-January start.
The left-handed batsman and right-arm off-spin bowler noted that he would make full use of these cricket gear as he continues his preparation for the return of competitive cricket.
