Guyana is set to make history by hosting the entire 2025 Massy Women’s Caribbean Premier League (WCPL) for the first time in the tournament’s four-year history.
The event runs from September 6 to 17 at the National Stadium, Providence, and promises an exciting showcase of world-class women’s T20 cricket.
The tournament will feature three formidable teams: the home side Guyana Amazon Warriors, defending champions Barbados Royals, and Trinbago Knight Riders. These franchises will battle it out over six group stage matches, culminating in a thrilling final on September 17. Each team will play four group-stage matches, with the top two sides advancing to compete for the coveted WCPL title.
The tournament’s official launch took place on Wednesday at Massy Distribution’s Montrose, East Coast Demerara location, where key stakeholders emphasized the profound significance of this moment for sport and gender equality in the region.
Massy Stores (Guyana) CEO Troy Beharry described the occasion as more than just a cricketing milestone. “This isn’t just a cricketing milestone—it’s a celebration of Guyana as a vibrant hub of Caribbean sport, culture, and talent,” Beharry stated. He stressed that Massy’s sponsorship is fundamentally about creating opportunities, supporting women’s development, and showcasing the courage and excellence of female athletes.
Nestlé Divisional Head Teisha Milner echoed these sentiments, calling the hosting of the full tournament a “moment of national pride.”
Milner highlighted the symbolic importance, noting, “This is not just a milestone for cricket, it’s a powerful signal of the region’s commitment to women in sport.”
She also drew parallels between the tournament’s core values—resilience, teamwork, courage, and ambition—and the broader mission shared by Massy and its partners.
