FrayStar, a prominent Bermudian company, announced plans to host a charity banquet centred on cricket, aiming to raise funds for local sporting initiatives and community projects. The event, slated for next month, will feature a live exhibition of the game’s classic skills, a keynote speech by a celebrated Bermudian cricketer, and a silent auction of memorabilia donated by former players.
The company’s CEO, who has long been an advocate for youth engagement in sports, said the banquet would provide an opportunity for residents to celebrate the island’s cricket heritage while supporting the development of new training facilities for aspiring cricketers. "Cricket has always been a unifying force here," he remarked. "We hope this evening will inspire the next generation and strengthen the bonds within our community."
Local cricket clubs and community groups have expressed enthusiasm, noting that the proceeds will be distributed among clubs needing equipment and coaching resources. The banquet will also offer a platform for local artisans to showcase cricket‑inspired crafts, further boosting small‑business participation.
Tickets are available through FrayStar’s website, with a portion of the sales earmarked for a charitable trust that supports youth sports programmes across Bermuda. The company encourages residents to attend and contribute to a cause that reflects both the island’s sporting spirit and its commitment to community development.
