Despite the weather not being favourable, organisers of the MMP Foundation’s Cricket fiesta have confirmed to this publication that action will be on today at the Albion Sports Complex.
Inclement weather has, over the past days, left the ground somewhat soggy, but the organisers expressed full confidence on Friday that all systems will be in place for a fun-filled day of cricket, and festivities that come after the pulsating on-field action.
The event will see Port Mourant, Young Warriors, Albion, Fyrish and Blairmont Blazers competing for supremacy.
A large turnout of fans is expected today at the Albion Sports Complex
Preliminaries will be played on a 10-over basis, after which the semi-final will be 15 overs each, and the finals will be played under floodlights at 20 overs apiece.
During the day, there will be exciting activities for the children, ranging from bouncy castles to face painting, to trampoline and other things.
However, the after-party is set for later in the evening, after the presentation ceremony. Deejays of the Showtime Sound System would definitely add flavour to the event with some of the best juggling.
In addition, an international deejay is expected to add his touch on the console, and there will be a few routines from the best dance groups in Berbice.
Tickets for the event, branded by Carib Beer, cost $500 for adults and $200 for children. They are available at Benjamin Sport and Gym on Albion Road, Corentyne; Stationery Plus and Baby Store in Rose Hall Town, C/tyne; Dr Ramesh Sugrim’s Clinic; JC Chandisingh Secondary School canteen; and Big B Restaurant.
