Jafarally to contest post of BCB president

Roy Jafarally will be running for the Berbice Cricket Board presidency at today’s AGM.

When the Berbice Cricket Board (BCB) holds its Annual General Meeting today at its office, Charlotte Street, New Amsterdam, Roy Jafarally will challenge incumbent Hilbert Foster for the leadership of the board.

Jafarally, 40, confirmed his ambitions to lead the BCB into a new era yesterday and indicated that he has a slate to contest the elections but opted not to disclose, who the other members are.

Jafarally, who is the president of the Rose Hall Canje Sports Club, explained that the basis for his decision to run was a passion to bring about “a levelled playing field for all clubs and cricketers across the county.”
