THE Berbice Cricket Board will host two separate clinics for fast bowlers and off- spinners on Sunday.

The two clinics will be conducted by former West Indies pacer Reon King and former national Under-19 player Sean Devers at the Albion Cricket Ground from 11:00hrs to 15:00hrs.
The clinics would be held under the board’s highly successful county-wide Dr Tulsi Dyal Singh coaching programme.

Hundreds of Under-19 players have benefitted from the programme which is sponsored by overseas-based Guyanese Dr Singh.
The board has since expanded the programme to include former national and international players who are highly respected in the county and are viewed as positive role models.

Foster, last Sunday announced a plan to produce at least 10 players for the West Indies at the different levels over the next two to three years.
This includes the Under-15, Under-19, female Under-19, senior females and senior team in T20, ODI and Test formats.

The county’s coaching staff, led by Winston Smith, has been visiting clubs and hosting mini academies across the county.
Foster disclosed that as a follow-up to these programmes, the board would be hosting a series of special clinics for fast bowlers, off-spinners, leg-spinners, left-arm orthodox, wicketkeepers and batters.

The BCB is in discussion with several former and current players to impart their knowledge and Foster stated that all the responses have been positive.
As part of the programme, the board would also be publishing more copies of its historic coaching manual and youth information booklet and in 2022 would be producing its own coaching video for youths.

King played 19 Test matches and 50 ODIs for the West Indies between 1990 and 2005, taking 53 Test wickets at an average of 32.7 while his 76 ODI wickets came at an average of 23.80.
He currently works as an International Cricket Match Referee and is highly respected for his knowledge of the game.

Devers is widely known across the country for his work as a sports journalist for the Kaieteur News and is also an international cricket commentator.
