Blairmont CC installs IMC

Shabeer Baksh will head the Blairmont Community Centre Cricket Club.

Blairmont Community Centre Cricket Club (BCCCC) Thursday evening installed an interim management committee which Shabeer Baksh will head until the annual general meeting in January 2021.

A number of players, members and parents gathered at the Berbice club under strict Covid-19 regulations to install the committee.

Baksh, who served as president from 2010 to 2018, promised to be committed in his role and work along with everyone for the betterment of the club. In 2018, the club copped the Guyana Cricket Board club of the year award after producing a number of national players.

Baksh says it is their aim to streamline most of the logistical works in order to hit the ground running when cricket returns.

Baksh reflected on his success and failures in the past at the helm of the club and stated that with his experience he looks forward to maintaining a high standard.

Region Five Educational Officer, Sadiek Ishmael, will be his deputy.

Ishmael said that he plans to bring his managerial and leadership skills to enhance the standing of the club. In addition to his knowledge of cricket and his educational experience, he plans to work with the club to have a mentorship programme so that the club can produce all round individuals especially at the youth level.

Kevon Jawahir is the secretary and Seon Glasgow J., the assistant secretary/treasurer.

The IMC says it plans to assign the relevant council members and committees before September 1.
