… Close to $3M to be shared out

THE ROSE HALL Town Youth and Sports Club (RHTYSC) 24th Annual Awards ceremony, which was scheduled to be held this Sunday at St Francis Training Centre, has been postponed to May 18, due to unforeseen circumstances. The venue remains the same. The ceremony would feature the sharing out of close to $3M worth of trophies, medals, plaques, gifts and prizes to over 40 awardees and is viewed as the biggest of its kind in Guyana.
According to the club’s Secretary/CEO Hilbert Foster, the main aims of the ceremony are: to inspire members to strive for excellence, to reward outstanding members and to assist the club to maintain its status as Guyana’s best.
The club’s Cricketer-of-the-Year for the period January 2013 to April 2014, would receive a package worth over $500 000, inclusive of a return trip to the United States of America, $200 000 in cash, jewellery, designer clothing, cell phones, electronic gadgets and household utensils.
Some of the other major awards to be shared out would be Under-15 and Under-19 Cricketer-of-the-Year, Most Promising Player, Most Committed Player and Female Cricketer-of-the-Year, while a club member would be rewarded with a benefit year.
Three special awards would also be shared out, while the club would also be hosting several other programmes during the awards ceremony including the Scotiabank Tribute to Teachers, Tribute to Heroes and the Berbice River Bridge Tribute to Retired Teachers programme.
Official sponsors of the club along with journalists would also be honoured by the RHTYSC while invitees would be treated to a special cocktail reception after the awards.
Junior Minister of Finance, Bishop Juan Edghill, has been invited to deliver the feature address while representatives of the eight official sponsors and the Club’s patron Beverley Harper are also expected to make presentations. Foster would deliver a comprehensive report of the past year and also announce plans for the club’s silver anniversary in 2014.
