BCB assists national female players financially

BCB President Hilbert Foster hands over the stipends to Guyana Captain Shemaine Campbelle.

Under the Dr. Puran Singh national players’ financial scheme, the Berbice Cricket Board (BCB) presented players from that county on the Guyana female team with $80,000 earlier this week.

In a simple ceremony, President of the BCB, Hilbert Foster said: “The main objective of my administration is to make sure that we develop Berbice Cricket to its highest level while making sure that every boy and girl is given the opportunity to fulfill his/her true potential on the cricket field.” The players who benefitted were Shemaine Campbelle, Tremayne Smartt, Lafona Gilegous, Sheneta Grimmond, Erva Giddings, Shabika Gajnabi, Melanie Henry and Plaffiana Millington.
