IN a heartwarming gesture of support for budding talent, the Guyana Police Force’s Senior Officers’ cricket team extended a helping hand to 12-year-old Nathaniel Ramkhelewan, a promising cricketer and first form student at Good Hope Secondary School.
On Wednesday, Nathaniel was presented with a full set of cricket gear, courtesy of the Senior Officers’ team.

The generous donation, comprising essential equipment such as a bat, balls, helmet, safety pads, and a storage bag for convenience, was handed over to the young all-rounder at the Guyana Police Force’s Eve Leary office.
Deputy Commissioner ‘Operations’ and Captain of the Senior Officers’ team, Mr. Ravindradat Budhram, along with Vice Captain, Deputy Superintendent Ronald Alli, facilitated the presentation.

Accompanied by his proud mother, Nadine Ramkhelewan, and coaches Felix Walker and Damion Vantul of FK Sports, Nathaniel was visibly elated to receive such valuable support for his cricketing journey.

Hailing from Triumph, East Coast Demerara, Nathaniel showcases his skills for the Malteenoes Sports Club as a left-handed batsman while also impressing with his right-arm off-spin bowling.

In a heartening exchange, Deputy Commissioner Budhram took the opportunity to counsel Nathaniel on the importance of balancing his passion for cricket with his education. Emphasising the significance of both pursuits, he encouraged the young talent to excel both on the field and in the classroom.

This gesture not only highlights the commitment of the Guyana Police Force to nurturing sporting talent but also underscores the importance of community support in fostering the next generation of athletes. Nathaniel’s journey as a cricketer receives a significant boost with this gesture, promising a bright future ahead for the young sportsman.
