Cricket: The BELCO Cup Awards Presentation
Today [May 19] the Bermuda Electric Light Company Limited [BELCO] and the Bermuda Cricket Board [BCB] presented cheques for the ninth annual BELCO Cup which was held last weekend.
BELCO president Andrew Parsons congratulated Southampton Rangers for their seventh victory over last year’s winners, Pembroke Hamilton Club [PHC]. Janeiro Tucker took home man of the match for his second year in a row.
BELCO, the Bermuda Cricket Board and St. David’s County Cricket Club, who traditionally host the final, jointly agreed that the charity, The Cornerstone Foundation, should benefit from proceeds of the final this year.
