Well done Irving and Bay.
Its great to see Stephen Outerbridge, Malachi Jones, Nyrobi Mills, Azende Furbert, Rodney Trott and team doing what they do so well.
I am really proud of all the positive work President Arrim Perenchief and Adrian Dill and the whole management, executive and cricket team and Bay family do for the Club and community, the progress is commendable, especially the genuine effort for the youth.
Bay is a Club that got decimated by Hurricanes Faye and Gonzalo, who’s membership, including Merkel Smith Junior and Jermaine Outerbridge, fixed massive holes in the roof and extensive water damage to get the club back up and running quickly and hosted Eastern Counties with class last year.
That’s the real Bermudian spirit past Presidents Elton Casey and Gregory Johnson espoused, team work makes the dream work.
Wishing you all the best of luck on Sunday, Irving keep guiding and grooming some of the best youth cricketers on the planet – well done Delray Rawlins – Bay all the way.
