Six to participate in upcoming CPL

The National Milling Company of Guyana (NAMILCO) and the Rose Hall Town Youth and Sports Club (RHTYSC) will shortly celebrate four years of working together; the former being an official sponsor of the RHTYSC first division team.
The Rose Hall Town NAMILCO Thunderbolt Flour First Division team over the years has been the leading one in the Ancient County and is a constant producer of players for Berbice, Guyana and the West Indies.

RHTYSC Secretary/CEO Hilbert Foster hailed the outstanding bond between the club and NAMILCO, describing the company as one of the foundations of its success.

The RHTYSC, in 2023, produced a total of fifteen cricketers for Guyana at the Under-13, Under-15, Under-17, Under-19, female and senior male levels.

The team also has a total of six senior players who will participate in the 2023 Caribbean Premier League, which starts later in the month.

Three NAMILCO Thunderbolt Flour male members are on the Amazon Warriors team.
They are Kevin Sinclair, Kevlon Anderson and Junior Sinclair.

Additionally, three female RHTYSC members — Shemaine Campbelle, Sheneeta Grimmond and Shabaki Gajnabi — are on the Amazon Warriors Female team for the tournament that will be played in Trinidad.

Foster described the six players in the CPL as a major achievement for the club that was founded in September 1990 by three times Commonwealth Youth Service Awardee, the St. Francis Xavier Roman Catholic Youth Club.
Jonathan Rampersaud and Jeremy Sandia have been outstanding with the ball for the Guyana Under-19 team currently playing in St. Vincent.
Rampersaud is the leading bowler for the team with two-five wicket hauls while Sandia has one.
Matthew Pottaya will shortly be serving as the vice-captain for the national Under-17 team while Raffel McKenzie and Tameshwar Deonandan are with the Guyana Under-13 team in Trinidad for a series of matches.

In 2023, the NAMILCO Thunderbolt Flour team had undertaken a total of 32 programmes/project under the name of the sponsor.
They include the construction of an internal fence at the Area ‘H’ ground, massive clean up of the venue, publication of the annual review magazine, Jessica Sandia Mother’s programme, Walter Nero Father Day Programme, Republic Bank Summer camp, Cricket Academy, Tribute to Heroes, Feeding of the Poor.

The team also donated over $400,000 worth of items to the Port Mourant Hospital Therapy Unit and also assisted hundreds of youths with bicycles, clothing and sports gears.
