INDIVIDUAL brilliance will once again carry a premium in the Lotto/Let’s Bet One Guyana T10 Tapeball Blast, with long-standing corporate partner Regal Super Centre stepping forward to sponsor the complete suite of individual player awards for the fourth consecutive edition of the tournament.
The retail giant’s renewed commitment ensures that while team silverware remains the ultimate prize, the competition’s standout performers will walk away with substantial financial incentives and high-value rewards.
The individual awards are headlined by the Most Valuable Player accolade, which includes a $150,000 cash prize and a brand-new motorbike.
The tournament’s leading run-scorer and top wicket-taker are also set for significant windfalls, with both categories offering $100,000 in cash plus a television set.
Game-changing contributions will be similarly recognised: the Player of the Final will earn $75,000, while the players finishing with the Super Strike Rate and Best Economy Rate will each collect $50,000.
Reaffirming the brand’s sustained involvement in the grassroots tournament, Regal Super Centre representative Telesha Ousman-Yamin highlighted the company’s long-standing connection with the event.
“We have been proud supporters of the One Guyana T10 Blast for four years now, and seeing the tournament expand and capture the public’s imagination year after year has been incredibly rewarding,” Ousman-Yamin said. “Tapeball cricket is the heart of local sport, and ensuring these players are rewarded for their excellence is something we are thrilled to continue.”
Expressing gratitude for the sustained commercial backing, John Ramsingh of FL Sport praised Regal’s ongoing role in elevating the tournament’s stature.
“Regal Supercentre has been a steadfast partner in driving the growth of this competition,” Ramsingh noted. “Their continued generosity adds immense value for the players who pour everything onto the park.
On the field, the fourth edition has already produced compelling action, and having partners like Regal on board elevates the overall profile as the tournament reaches its business end.”
That on-field action has already crowned three regional champions following intense zone qualifiers.
Grillmaster Sip N Play All-Stars produced a series of clinical performances to secure the Berbice zone title, Mahdia – Movements Family dominated the East Bank/West Demerara zone, and Lusignan Bulls DTP II claimed bragging rights in Essequibo.
The tournament now shifts its focus to the Georgetown/East Coast Demerara Zone, slated to run across two weekends on September 26–27 and October 3–4.
Zonal finals for the region will take place at the Enmore Community Centre Ground, where the final qualification spots for the national phase will be decided.
Once the Georgetown/East Coast representative is locked in, the marquee event moves to Essequibo for its grand conclusion.
All roads lead to the Anna Regina National Stadium on Sunday, October 11, where the country’s premier tapeball sides will battle for top honours and an ultimate prize pool featuring $2 million for the champions, $1 million for the runners-up, and $500,000 for third place.
