He said thanks to a donation from TelEm Group towards the event, his foundation is confident that it will make many different softball fans from all the competing islands happy with the arrangements.
The Treasurer and fellow Foundation member, Timothy Daniel, picked up their sponsorship donation from TelEm Group, Senior Account Manager, Lucrecia P. Lynch, during a brief presentation ceremony at the TelEm Group main building on Pond Island last Friday.
“We have a number of softball players and fans within our company, and I am encouraging them all, along with other sporting fans on the island to turn out and root for their favourite teams,” said Lucrecia, who informed that fans can also keep up with the progress of the tournament with free live streaming of the games.
“We will have some random prize giveaways to keep the excitement going and we will be providing Top-ups for mobile customers at the sports venue,” continued the Account Manager.
