Youth Programs Ignite Future Stars | Guyana News

Rose Hall Town just launched two powerhouse youth programs designed to ignite potential and build futures. The Bakewell Cricket Academy, running until July 24, is training over 80 young athletes ages 8 to 19 with top-tier coaching led by Winston Smith, focusing first on mastering the batting stance and grip. Meanwhile, the 18th annual Republic Bank Grade Six Summer Camp is helping dozens of students transition smoothly from primary to secondary school, covering core subjects like Math, English, Science, and Social Studies — plus basic Spanish. Both programs feature inspiring guest speakers tackling peer pressure, discipline, career choices, and the power of education. Every participant receives a $7,000 educational package filled with school supplies. And with over $3 million in prizes from the Basil Butcher Trust Fund — including electric bikes, laptops, and more — top performers in each camp could walk away with more than $500,000. All thanks to a massive network of sponsors who’re investing in the next generation, whether they’re chasing a cricket ball or a classroom chalkboard.
