THE Berbice zone of the Kares One Guyana T10 Tapeball Blast is set to ignite with 16 teams vying for supremacy on June 28th and 29th, 2025.
Finalists from the 2024 edition, Montra Jaguars, will be looking to go one step further this year, but will face stiff competition from fellow returnees Cotton Tree Die Hard and Mahaica Hawks, among other talent-filled teams from Berbice, before they can reach the national finals.

Other teams in the Berbice zone are Champ XI, Crabwood Creek, Bath Sports Club, Corriverton Spartans, Line Path Select XI, Ethan XI, D’Edward Sports Club, New Amsterdam XI, Tucber Park, and Name Brand Titans, who played in the 2023 edition of the tournament.

Saturday’s action will be split across two venues: the #48 Ground and the Rose Hall/Canje Ground (Welfare Ground).
The intensity then shifts to the Albion Sports Complex on Sunday, where the zone’s champion will be crowned under lights.
Play is scheduled to commence at 9:30 AM local time each day, and entry for all spectators is free.

Tournament Co-Director, John Ramsingh, is enthusiastic about the Berbice leg, stating, “Berbice marks the beginning of our expansion, and we are eager to witness the talent within this county. We anticipate high-octane cricket and encourage fans to rally behind their local teams. Ultimately, both the teams and their supporters will emerge as winners.”
The stakes are high, with the Berbice zone winner securing a coveted spot in the national finals slated for Sunday, August 3rd at the National Stadium in Providence, commencing at 2:00 PM.
Beyond the national final berth, the Berbice zone champion will also pocket a significant $300,000 prize, along with a specially crafted trophy, and will have the opportunity to compete for an additional $1.7 million at the National Stadium.

The runner-up in the zone final will receive $100,000.
Cricket enthusiasts in Berbice are in for a thrilling weekend of tapeball action as the road to the national finals begins.
The national finals will offer even greater rewards, with the runner-up taking home $700,000, a trophy, and medals, while each losing semi-finalist will receive $300,000.
