OFFICIALS of the Guyana Cricket Board (GCB), comprising Secretary Anand Sanasie, Assistant Administrator Melinda Bishundyal-Chaitram and Territorial Development Officer Colin Stuart, recently met Secretary and CEO for Rose Hall Town Sports and Youth Club Hilbert Foster and some club officials.The meeting stemmed from an invitational visit extended to the GCB by Foster.
The visit which envisaged high levels of expectations was synonymous with its prospects, as a number of mutually accepted views and positions were shared between the two entities.
The GCB found the meeting fruitful, in that both parties were able to share concepts and ideas on the conduct of cricket development initiatives and programmes, and found the exercise to be mutually beneficial to both parties involved.
After the meeting, the GCB donated four additional Kiddy cricket kits to the club, to assist in the development and promotion of its cricket nursery.
Both Sanasie and Foster expressed a willingness to further cooperate and facilitate cricket development initiatives in the Berbice area.
The GCB recently donated brushcutters to all first division clubs in Berbice. Last year the GCB also donated practice nets and $100 000 to each first division club.
