CCUSA – Cricket Council USA Tournament – December 12-17- Florida – Volunteers Required

December 5, 2018 – 6:27 pm
Cricket Council USA (CCUSA) is seeking volunteers for the upcoming 10th Edition of the US Open T20 tournament.

The golden edition of the tournament will be massive in terms of world class stars and entertainment and hence the cricket body wants to extend an invitation to all those cricket fans who want to be part of something successful.

Those interested can contact Teasha Porter at 561-392-4800 or email legal@maqgroup.com. When this is done, their accreditation can be done so that there is no issue with getting into the park and restricted areas on the days of the match.

This is the first time that CCUSA is seeking volunteers for the tournament because it has grown into comparison with a world event. Chairman Mahammad Qureshi welcomes those coming on board : “We are all in this for the development of the game of cricket in the US. Once you think that you can contribute in a meaningful way, then come on board and let’s make USA cricket great.”

The US Open T20 tournament gets off on December 12 and goes until December 17 at the Centre Broward Regional Park in Lauderhill.

We all think that supporting literacy initiatives is incredibly important.               Continue reading →
