Tourism Guyana Titans embark on cricket, sport tourism tour of Tobago

The Tourism Guyana Titans Cricket Team will embark on a bilateral series against several cricketing counterparts in the Twin Island Republic of Trinidad and Tobago. The cricket tour to Tobago from June 3-8 will see the team contest three matches against top opposition.

According to Fiaz Yamin of Tourism Guyana, the tour will serve as a great opportunity to market Guyana, using cricket as the vehicle to promote the country.

Tourism Guyana Titans squad: Heimant Ram, Fiaz Yamin, Denesh Singh, Soopaul Sanichar, Anand Bharat, Stephan Sookram, Shane Singh, Shayne Seebarran, Nyron Maraj, Devaugh Nandan, Akash Singh, Lalta Karim, Rohan Sukhnandan, Dwayne Yan, Ryan Latif, Devon Paul and Premchand Mahadeo.

The management team comprises Heimant Ram (Manager), Stephan Sookram (PRO), Dwayne Yan (Marketing Manager) and Shane Seebarran (Treasurer).

Yamin added that Tourism Guyana is grateful for the support of the Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sport, Sonrize Engineering, Igloo, Dave’s Guyanese Choice, Brunswick, Jaigobin Hotel, Papa Johns, Regal Stationery and Computer Center, Autopit Signs and D. Singh Trading in making the tour possible.

During the series, Titans will play two matches against Club Crusoe Cuzins, comprising one 40-over match and one T20 encounter, while also facing Tobago Legends in an additional T20 fixture.

The tour forms part of the team’s ongoing efforts to provide players with regional exposure and strengthen cricketing ties within the Caribbean.

Club Crusoe Cuzins was resuscitated in 2010 after an extended hiatus and had a short period of inactivity for a few seasons, but is back with new management and sponsorship.

Former captain Jason Persaud, through his Cuzins franchise and newly acquired sponsorship support, is leading the team’s return ahead of the upcoming 2027 season.

Persaud, during a conversation with Tourism Guyana representatives, explained that the club’s renewed direction is heavily focused on youth development and long-term sustainability.

“The team lacked the vision of youths for the future, and that is my main focus going forward,” Persaud stated.

He also expressed appreciation to Tourism Guyana and acknowledged the friendships built with several Tobago-based players, which helped make the tour possible.

Meanwhile the TG Titans, established in 2024 as a tapeball playing team, elevated their status to the hardball arena last year through several exhibition games and round robin tournaments.

The highlight of their brief but fruitful foray into the hardball arena came with the winning of the Ogle Cricket Club One-Day cricket extravaganza.

According to team officials, the tour presents an excellent opportunity for players to gain valuable experience while showcasing their abilities against competitive regional teams.

“The support from our sponsors has been tremendous and has allowed the team to embark on this important tour. We are excited for the opportunity to compete in Tobago and proudly represent Guyana,” team representatives noted.
