KENTUCKY Fried Chicken (KFC) Mini Zinger Cricket programme commenced at the Georgetown Cricket Club (GCC) ground, yesterday.
The programme will be held on Saturday mornings from 08.00 hours to 09:30 hours and GCC president, Johnaton Yearwood, informed that the opening day went very well.
“We had 24 children including one girl but we have catered for 50 children so we hope more turn up when the session is held this Saturday” Yearwood disclosed.
Coaching was supposed to be conducted by GCC’s Head Coach, former Guyana youth opener, Peter Persaud and Guyana Harpy Eagles Assistant Coach, former Guyana off-spinner, Garvin Nedd.
The aim of the programme is to create a developmental system for pre-teen children interested in becoming cricketers.
There is no registration fee. (Sean Devers)
