CARIBBEAN Premier League (CPL), the Government of Guyana, and Guardian Media Group have combined resources to provide 6,000 tickets for school children to attend the two-morning matches at the National Stadium, Providence, free of cost.

On Saturday, Jamaica Tallawahs face St. Kitts and Nevis Patriots, while on Sunday, Tallawahs face St. Lucia Kings.
Both matches commence at 10:00 hours and will be followed by the Guyana Amazon Warriors’ night matches against Trinbago Knight Riders and Barbados Royals.

Minister of Culture, Youth and Sport, Charles Ramson Jr. spoke on its significance and reflected on the young days of attending cricket and sitting in the bleachers and the high interest it sparked among youngsters for the sport.
The Minister indicated that given its previous impact, it was something they were eager to support again.

Last year, numerous students attended the matches and reveled in the fun of the sun.
CPL organising indicated free face painting and hot dogs for the children.

The Guyana Amazon Warriors (GAW) will be in action tonight in their first home game of the season at the National Stadium, Providence, from 19:00 hours.
