Rose Hall Canje CCCC benefits from Project Cricket Gear for Young and Promising Cricketers in Guyana

The rapidly-rising Rose Hall Estate Community Centre Cricket Club was recently presented with a pair of cricket stumps and bails compliments of Project Cricket Gear for Young and Promising Cricketers in Guyana.
The gift to the club was made possible through Anil Beharry, who visited the area recently and saw the need for it. This initiative is a joint effort by Kishan Das of the USA and Beharry. In presenting the donation, Beharry said he was pleased with the work of the club mainly through their leaders, Dr Cecil Beharry and Ameer Rahaman.

He further commended the club for a strong youth programme and praised it r producing arguably the fastest young pacer in the Caribbean, Isiah Thorne. He added that more help would be made available to young and promising players. In response, Rahaman thanked Beharry and he praised the initiative which supports cricket and cricketers across Guyana.
The aim of the project is to provide cricket gear free of cost for young and talented cricketers in Guyana. The project is seeking new and used cricket gear, which will then be distributed across the length and breadth of Guyana.
Total items collected so far: $40,000 in cash, two cricket boots, 12 pairs of batting pads, 12 bats, nine pairs of batting gloves, and four cricket bags.
Sixteen young players from Essequibo Coast, Pomeroon and the East Canje area have already benefited from a junior gear bag, five bats, six pairs of batting pads and four pairs of batting gloves. Two clubs in Pomeroon will also benefit from two used bats.
Talent spotting is being done across Guyana with guidance from club leaders to identify the players. Players must be in school and disciplined. Players above school age will also be considered.
Das and Beharry would like to thank Imran and Javed Khan of West Indian Sports Complex, Option Group, Bish Panday of P and P Insurance Brokers, Sean Devers, Travis Simon, Hilbert Foster of Rose Hall Town Youth and Sport Club, Ariel Tilku, Aaron Beharry, Devon Ramnauth, Sherman Austin, Teddy Singh, Leana Bachan and Imran Saccoor, Romash Munna, Ravi Etwaroo, Ravin Harkishun, Surendra Harkishun, Allan Mangru, and Vishal Mahabir. More distribution will be done as soon as gear arrives from the USA and the COVID-19 pandemic is under control.
