Local cricket board lose ‘Control’

FROM now on the local cricket Board will be known as the Trinidad and Tobago Cricket Board (TTCB) and not as the Trinidad and Tobago Cricket Board of Control, as was previously the case.

This disclosure was made by TTCB president and chief executive officer Alloy Lequay at the PowerGen Secondary School’s prize distribution  function on Wednesday  night at the Rudranath Capildeo Learning Resource Centre, Couva. According to Lequay: “At a meeting of the TTCB executive on Saturday last, we decided that we will drop the ‘Control’ from our name. “This does not mean that we are not in control, what it means is that we are now in partnership with all the different local bodies who have a vested interest in the sport of cricket.” This change comes seven years after the West Indies administration also changed from the West Indies Cricket Board of Control (WICBC) to the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB). At the time that change occurred, Lequay was a member of the WICB.
