Though the run of victories
might be too short to for a
conclusive judgement, events
in a Barbados schoolboys cricket
competition are shaping to
produce legendary status for
a learning institution in the
parish of St. Philip, Bayley’s
Primary School.
Earlier this month the
11-year-olds and under from
that school steered their team
to becoming the first to win
four championship titles in
the annual Herman Griffith
Primary Schools competition
through defeating challengers,
St. Stephen’s Primary, by 60
runs.
To arrive at the point of the
unprecedented fourth successive
victory in this 39-year-old
schoolboys’ competition, children
of the St Philip school had
chalked up wins in the final
against West Terrace Primary
in 2016, Reynold Weekes Primary
in 2017 and Good Shepherd
Primary in 2018.
Playing in front of spectators
such as legendary Barbados
and West Indies players,
Sir Wesley Hall and Sir Garfield
Sobers, Bayley’s Primary
captain and Man-of-the-Match,
Damarko Wiggins, won the
toss and elected to bat. His boys
posted 138 runs in their allotted
25 overs, but St Stephen’s
Primary managed only 78 all
out in 22.4 overs.
“We will be back next year
for the fifth,” declared an elated
coach Winfield Forde after the
record-making victory.
Being already in unchartered
territory owing to this unprecedented
string of victories,
and with the coach’s declared
intent, Bayley’s Primary may
be on its way to becoming legendary
in Barbados schoolboys’
cricket.
