THE Albion Community Centre Cricket Club (ACCCC) will put the interest of the club and its cricketers first and not support political agendas of any cricket board or individuals.

President of the club, Vemen Walter, in a recent statement noted that the club is open to engage both Guyana Cricket Board (GCB) and Berbice Cricket Board (BCB). He added that Albion will be fair and will listen to what both parties bring to the table.

Walter said that stemming from a recent meeting the executives decided that they will not compromise where representation of their cricketers is concerned. The long-serving official noted that the onus is on clubs to take a proactive stand.

“Members of the Albion Community Centre Cricket Club (ACCCC) are of the firm view that as a key stakeholder in Guyana’s Cricket, the Club cannot just sit back and accept whatever is offered by BCB and GCB which most of the time is to the detriment to the club and its cricketers. We will continue to call a spade a spade and will not get entangled with any cricket politics.”

“The club would be very transparent in its delivery. The Club would like to inform the general public that it has no intention to be involved in any secret engagement(s) with any individual(s) or cricket board(s), as is currently being peddled. The club also would like to make it quite clear that it will engage the media via press releases as the need arises.”

The club was also expected to brief the media on the “surprise omission” of several of their U-15 players from the Berbice team.
