“These are just two of our outstanding Cricketers who played with great passion and enthusiasm which bought great excitement to the Matches and much pleasure to their many supporters and fans Island wide but none like that of their St. David’s Island Community.

“And on this night, much reminiscing will take place of them and others who thoroughly enjoyed playing Euchre and Checkers.

“Many speak still, about the vicious games of Euchre and Checkers along with the vociferous shouts of victory and loss and much laughter from the players and onlookers.”
