The Company and its Chief Executive Officer Feroze Barakat over the last seven years has been assisting the RHTYSC with Scorebooks which are distributed to less fortunate Cricket Clubs in Berbice under the Rose Hall Town Youth & Sports Club Cricket Development Programme.
Over the last twenty years, the Club and its ten cricket teams have assisted over 100 cricket clubs with millions worth of cricket gears including bats, pads, stumps, gloves, scorebooks, wicket keeping gloves while dozens of Cricketers have also received assistance to further their cricketing careers.
The newly elected Berbice Cricket Board President stated that the RHTYSC, since its formation in 1990 had attained success through sheer hard work, dedication and it wants other clubs to reach such success as it would allow them to serve youths better.
The better that Clubs perform, Foster stated would result in more youth rejecting Satan and his evil world of Drugs, Crime, Suicide, Alcohol and Tobacco. With his election to the Presidency of the Berbice Cricket Board, Foster disclosed the requests for assistance has doubted and the RHTYSC is struggling to respond to every request. Clubs are being reformed after being dormant for a period due to the lack of cricket that was being placed in Berbice. With numerous tournaments being scheduled for 2018, Clubs are preparing for the busiest year in the history of the Berbice Cricket Board.
Special thanks were expanded to Barakat, Manager Troy Khan and the Staff of Odyssey Transportation Services for the assistance. Among the Clubs expected to benefit are Tamarind Root, Kildonan Cricket Club, Mental Hospital, Whim National, Police Sports Club, No. 73, Mount Sinai Cricket Club, Guymine Cricket Club, Rose Hall Canje and Bush Lot Rising Star.
