The organizers of the Kares One Guyana T10 Blast revealed that patrons attending the finals will be seated in the Green Stand at the National Stadium, Providence on Saturday.
However, should there be an overfill, the Red Stand will open to accommodate patrons with admission free.
In an effort to promote both on and off-field activities, the organizers related that below the Green Stand will be the Corporate Village, a well-stocked bar by Banks DIH, and various food concessions.
“Persons are advised that while they can bring small coolers into the venue, they cannot bring glass bottles. There will be a strict prohibition on the usage of glass bottles on Saturday,” the organization, FL Sport said.
“In an aim by the organisers to keep all activities centrally located, the Free Kidz Zone will be at the back of the Green Stand. The children will enjoy free rides in the child-friendly zone, including a bouncy castle and free ice cream, soda, snacks, and water for the young,” the body noted.
Notably, persons seeking private boots are asked to contact Azad Ibrahim on 624-3362.
