Sport enthusiast supports Regal teams for Florida Cup double
Longstanding supporter of sport in Guyana, and softball cricket in particular, Denesh Persaud, on Wednesday joined the list of sponsors that have thrown their weight behind Regal cricket as they get ready to defend their titles in the Florida Cup 2019.
Persaud, who is particularly fond of the brand of cricket that the Regal All-Stars and Regal Masters play, said he will support a winning team and a winning brand any day.
These sentiments were echoed at a presentation ceremony on Wednesday afternoon in downtown Georgetown to Regal tour Manager, Divesh Ramjattan. Persaud said, “It is not easy to send two teams overseas regularly and to win year after year. I know the challenges and want to be part of such a winning team and process.”
On accepting the donation from Persaud Junior on behalf of the Florida Cup double defending champions, Ramjattan expressed his gratitude and promised to play a good brand of cricket and to represent the sponsors and the entire country with pride and distinction.
Regal All-Stars and Regal Masters are the defending champions in their respective categories of the South Florida Softball Cricket League, organised by the Florida Cup which bowls off on April 12 in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
This year marks the 15th edition of the tournament and more than 30 teams are expected to be on show over the three days of play. The finals are set for Sunday April 14 at the Central Broward Regional Stadium in Fort Lauderdale.
