“Moment of national pride” as Guyana prepares to host Massy WCPL

For the first time in the tournament’s four-year history, the Massy Women’s Caribbean Premier League (CPL) will head to the Land of Many Waters in a matter of weeks for its fourth edition.
Set to bowl off at the Guyana National Stadium, Providence on Saturday, September 6, the tournament will feature three franchises – hosts Guyana Amazon Warriors, defending champions Barbados Royals and Trinbago Knight Riders in seven blockbuster matches.
This year’s edition of the tournament was officially launched on Thursday afternoon by title sponsors Massy Distribution at its Montrose, East Coast Demerara (ECD) location, where Massy Guyana Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Troy Beharry spoke to the significance of Guyana hosting the tournament and their commitment to women’s development.

Beharry expressed, “For the first time in this tournament’s history, Guyana will host every single match and we couldn’t be more proud. This isn’t just a cricketing milestone, it’s a celebration of Guyana as a vibrant hub of Caribbean sport, culture, and talent. For Massy, this goes beyond cricket, it speaks to what we value and stand for. We are not just sponsoring a tournament, we are investing in possibilities, we are backing the extraordinary talent of Caribbean women who represent courage, excellence, determination.”
He went on to add on the topic of women’s empowerment, “The WCPL is a platform to elevate women, not only as athletes but as icons, role models and agents of change and Massy is proud to stand beside them. Our support for this league is part of a larger mission, Massy is committed to advancing women’s empowerment in sport, in business and in every space where potential thrives.”

Sharing similar sentiments was Nestle Divisional Head Teisha Milner, who referred to Guyana’s hosting as a moment of national pride.
“At its heart, this is about changing the game for women and girls across the Caribbean, challenging gender-based inequality and creating real pathways to progress through sport. Massy is proud to be this title sponsor of the 2025 Massy Women’s CPL and for the first time ever, Guyana will host the entire tournament. This is not just a milestone for cricket, it’s a national moment of pride and a powerful signal of the Region’s commitment to women in sport,” Milner shared with the gathering.
“The values we celebrate on the pitch: resilience, team work, courage and ambition are the same values that Massy lives by,” the Nestle Head further stated.

“As we step into this fourth season, we do so with pride in how far we’ve come and with excitement at what lies ahead. Let’s continue to raise the bar, support our athletes and inspire the next generation of girls to dream. Dream big.”
