Braving the inclement weather, over 150 children along with their families and friends flocked the Everest Cricket Club, Camp Road and Carifesta Avenue on Sunday as they concluded their one- week summer camp with three softball matches along with a fun day.
President of the Club, Manzoor Nadir and Club Manager, Rihanna Ragoobeer both declared the camp a success as they battled through the week hand in hand with the children housed in the main auditorium.
The camp leaders, Saheed Mohammed, Reyaz Husein and John Ramsingh along with Nadir and Ragoobeer all wore big smiles on their faces as they presented certificates to participants who could be heard telling their friends of their anticipation for next year.
Ragoobeer reflected on the various skills the boys had developed not only in cricket after playing a few hardball matches and training sessions such as etiquette from esteemed cricketing administrators but also social skills as they bonded over camp fires, embraced public speaking and learned to enjoy taking care of their health through physical fitness.
According to some of the parents who were also involved in softball matches, the camp was something that made the holidays enjoyable for their children and guaranteed that they all took away something from it.
