THE Rose Hall Town Youth & Sports Club (RHTYSC) last Tuesday received renewed sponsorship from Farfan & Mendes for the Under-15 team for the 23rd consecutive year.

Assistant Secretary/CEO of RHTYSC, Simon Naidu, stated that the Providence, East Bank, Demerara-based business entity first sponsored the Under-15 cricket team in January, 1997.

The company first supported the RHTYSC in 1996, by donating a grass-cutter and over the years has developed a highly successful relationship, with the team who have won numerous Berbice championships.

The club has also produced 45 Berbice players and 25 Guyana Under-15 players, among them Royston Crandon, Assad Fudadin, Abdel Fudadin, Esaun Crandon, Delbert Hicks, Khemraj Mahadeo, Shemaine Campbelle, Dominique Rikhi, Murphy La Rose, Shabiki Gajnabi, Sheneeta Grimmond, Jonathan Rampersaud, Mahendra Gopilall, Marian Samaroo and Jeremy Sandia.

Crandon, Fudadin, Campbelle and Giddings have gone on to represent the West Indies while Rampersaud, Gajnabi and Grimmond have all earned call-ups to West Indies training camps.
Naidu, who has taken over the day-to-day operation of the RHTYSC at just 18 years, expressed gratitude to Farfan & Mendes for their continued confidence in the club.
He disclosed that Shazam Khan, Matthew Pottaya would serve as captain and vice-captain respectively for 2019 with veteran administrator Keith Hicks and Rabindranauth Kissoonlall along with Tyrone Pottaya as managers.

The Asst Secretary/CEO committed the Rose Hall Town Farfan & Mendes Under-15 team to upholding the club’s highest standard on and off the cricket field.
The team would be involved in over 60 personal development programmes during the year with the main objective of making a positive difference in the lives of youths, the elderly and less fortunate.

Marketing Manager of the Company, Onai Vasconcellos, stated that Farfan & Mendes Co. Ltd was proud of its relationship with the RHTYSC and was satisfied that its investment was worthwhile.
The club, he stated, has represented the company’s brand with distinction. He wished the team even more success in 2019 and urged club members to continue setting the bar even higher.
