At a meeting with members of the newly elected St. Andrews Cricket League executive last Friday, the Prime Minister welcomed news that the 2019 league features 32 teams competing in three divisions.<\/p>\n
Dr. Mitchell encouraged the new executive to do all within their power to promote the growth and development of cricket in the parish that has created several excellent cricketers.<\/p>\n
The executive members shared some of their plans with the Prime Minister including the intention to have cricket year round in St. Andrew\u2019s with the staging of a women\u2019s competition, a T-20 competition and two-day matches.<\/p>\n
The Prime Minister, an avid cricket fan, has also thrown support behind the St. Mark\u2019s Cricket Competition. At a recent prize-giving ceremony for the 2018 competition which was also supported by Sandals Grenada, Dr. Mitchell handed over trophies and prize money to the winning teams.<\/p>\n
In addition to congratulating the winners, he encouraged the organising committee to continue providing a platform for youngsters to improve their talent while at the same time
\npromoting fitness at the community level.<\/p>\n
The Prime Minister also commended members of the business community who continue
\nto support sporting events such as the cricket competitions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
