The Rose Hall Canje Community Centre Cricket Club (RHCCCC) has extended congratulations to President Dr Irfaan Ali on his recent re-election.
The club also extended similar congratulatory sentiments to Vice President Dr Bharat Jagdeo and Prime Minister Brigadier (Ret’d) Mark Phillips.
“Our club is one that suffered a lot when the sugar estate was closed under the former administration. We lost a lot of young and very talented cricketers due to financial reasons, where some of them unfortunately had to find part-time jobs and quit cricket.”
“Our club was at a near state of closing down, as the decline in members was getting heavier, and the facility had become tough to maintain,” the club’s official social media stated.
The club added, “Our club today has moved from what could have been closed down to one of the top youth-producing clubs in Berbice over the last 5 years. The Government’s commitment to the development of sports in our country has boosted our club tremendously, and we have benefited from gears projects, a driving mower for maintenance and much more. The resuscitation of the Sugar Estate has done wonders for the cricket club.”
“A big thank you for the last five years, and we know the next five will be even better. Our club remains committed to the development of young cricketers and is thankful for everyone who played a part over the last five years.”
This cricket club is known for producing rising international talents in West Indies female players Ashmini Munisar and Releanna Grimmond, along with promising fast bowler Isai Thorne, among others.
Rose Hall has recently won the Berbice Youth Club of the Year Award for producing well-rounded cricketers for Berbice, Guyana, and the West Indies.
