THE long-standing relationship between the RHTYSC and Metro Office and Computer Supplies has been renewed for another year.
The popular stationery store renewed their cricket sponsorship of the RHTYSC female team on Friday during a simple presentation ceremony at the company’s Main Street New Amsterdam branch.

Berbice Regional Manager Danny Ramnarine handed over the sponsorship cheque to RHTYSC female cricketers Trisha Hardat and Stephanie Ramdas.
RHTYSC secretary Hilbert Foster stated that the club was the first to form a female section in 2008 and that Metro came on board as the team’s official sponsor in 2009 under the management of their Chief Executive Officer.

The team has dominated female cricket in Berbice and remained the only of its kind in Guyana with full membership.
The RHTYSC Metro female team in 2010 became the national champions when it won the Guyana Cricket Board title and has won all female tournaments organised by Berbice Cricket Board since 2011 despite playing against sub-association in the county.

The team is currently being led by West Indies vice-captain Shemaine Campbell while her West Indian counterpart Shabaki Gajnabi is her deputy.
The team since 2008 has produced 4 West Indies players, Campbel, Gajnabi, Grimmond and Erva Giddings.
Campbell is also the captain of the Guyana senior team and remains the only Guyanese to ever play 100 matches at the T20 and ODI international levels.

She is also the only Guyanese to score centuries at the inter county, regional and international levels.
West Indies player Trymanine Smartt also played for the team in 2010.
Foster who is a former president of the Berbice Cricket Board stated that the team in 2023 was also able to successfully complete a total of over 40 committee programs including the ‘say no to suicide, say yes to education’, Christmas village and others.

Stephanie Ramdas speaking on behalf of her teammates expressed gratitude to the management and staff of the sponsor for their support over the years.
The Berbice under 19 player stated that the female team under the dynamic leadership of Campbell was very pleased to be associated with Metro and to play under its brand.

Regional Metro manager Ramnarine wished the team success in 2024 and urged them to uphold high standards they have set themselves in the past.
