THE management and members of the Rose Hall Town Youth and Sports Club would like to congratulate eight members of the club who have obtained annual cricketing contracts with either the Guyana Cricket Board or Cricket West Indies.

The eight members of the club who gained contracts are Kevin Sinclair, Kelvon Anderson, Junior Sinclair, Slyus Tyndall for males and Shemanine Campbelle, Shabika Gajnabi, Sheneeta Grimmond and Plaffina Millington for females.

The Rose Hall Town Youth and Sports Club was formed in September 1990 by three times Commonwealth Youth Service Awardee, the St. Frances Xavier Roman Catholic Youth Club and has since grown into Guyana’s most dynamic youth and sports club with an unmatched list of activities and achievements.

Club secretary Hilbert Foster stated that the club was very proud of its members and that the RHTYSC has perhaps the most members in the West Indies for a club at the national and regional levels with cricketing contracts.

This he stated was a fitting tribute to the hard work of the players and the massive investments made into their career by the management of the RHTYSC.
Anderson, Kevin Sinclair, Junior Sinclair and Tyndall have obtained a one-year contract with the Guyana Cricket Board at the senior level. Kevin Sinclair has represented the senior West Indies team at all levels- test, ODI and T20 while Anderson has represented Guyana over the last two years, served briefly as captain and is also a former West Indies Under 19 and Academy player.
Junior Sinclair, who is yet to make his senior debut for Guyana is a former national junior player. The talented all-rounder has represented the Amazon Warriors team for the last three years in the Caribbean Premier League. Tyndall, a former national junior fast bowler is yet to make his senior debut but is currently with the Guyana 50 overs squad in Trinidad. Former West Indian pacer Ian Bishop has been very high in his praises of the Berbice fast bowler.

Three of the four RHTYSC females have played for the West Indies at all levels- T20 and ODI with Campbelle currently serving as vice captain of the team which recently reached the semifinals of the ICC T20 World Cup.

Campbelle has received a multi-year contract with the CWI while Gajnabi is on an academy contract.

Grimmond and Millington were part of fourteen regional female cricketers awarded contracts by the CWI. Off spinner Millington was the best bowler in the 2024 female CWI tournament with outstanding performances at the T20 and 50 overs levels.

RHTYSC organising secretary and cricket manager Robby Kissoonlall urged the players to remain focused and to continue training to better themselves.
