THE UPPER Demerara Cricket Association (UDCA) last Sunday, April 27, held its Annual General Meeting (AGM) at Virgie’s Place, Old England, Upper Demerara River where ten clubs were represented.
Incumbent president Bradley Fredericks in his report thanked those who attended but expressed the hope that those absent would recognise the importance of unity within the new dispensation of the Cricket Administration Bill.
Fredericks said the Bill seeks to bring order to our National game and includes Linden (UDCA) for the first time as a legal entity within Guyana’s Cricket, adding that all the clubs in the area should be prepared to cope with the concomitant demands expected.
“A new era has dawned on us and we must take full advantage,” he stressed, even as he applauded the Government of Guyana and APNU for including UDCA legally in the new movement.
Following the AGM, the election of office-bearers was held where Fredericks and his entire Executive, were returned en bloc with members giving their full support for the new executive body and wishing them well in their new term of office for the period April 2014 – 2016.
