“Since the election of the new administration of the Berbice Cricket Board in early 2018, we have stressed the importance of education. The BCB strongly believes that the pursuit of an educational background is just as important as striving to become a cricket superstar as only about two percentage of our current youth players would go on to become a professional cricketer. You must remember at all times that what you have in your brain can never be taken away from you and the BCB is determined to make sure that each one of our young players understand the importance of education.”
Those were the words of BCB President Hilbert Foster when he delivered the feature address of the Vitality Inc., Education Trust Fund at the St Francis Community Developers Training Centre recently.
