SVGCA Inc. wins again Sports Association of the Year accolade

The St Vincent and the Grenadines Cricket Association Inc. has replayed the Association of the Year award, when the 2018 National Lotteries Authority National Sports Awards took place last Saturday night at the auditorium of the SVG Community College’s Villa campus.

The SVGCA Inc. got the judges’ nod ahead of the SVG Swimming Federation, Team Athletics SVG and the SVG Volleyball Association.

One of the many high points of the St Vincent and the Grenadines Cricket Association Inc. during 2018, was the improved performance of the St Vincent and the Grenadines team at the Windward Islands Under-15 Tournament held in St Lucia.

Through some development structures put in place, the team returned their best showing in many years, placing second.

The SVGCA Inc. successfully hosted all its regular local competitions, and the inaugural National Club Championships, which saw the association helping to assist teams with uniform costs.

Additionally, the SVGCA Inc. funded the schools’ Under-15 cricket competition.

The St Vincent and the Grenadines Cricket Association Inc, stepped in to host the Regional Under-19 tournament, which they executed to near perfection.

The SVGCA Inc. in 2018, also donated $10,000 to the Zero Hunger Trust Fund and assisted three female cricketers in their technical vocational education, by providing them with tools.

Also, the SVGCA Inc. established a commercial arm, which will complement its income stream.
