Director of Sports on Nevis, Jamir Claxton, recently announced that former deceased female cricketer on Nevis, Ruby Chapman, will be honoured posthumously.
The upcoming annual matchup between the St. Kitts females and the Nevis females’ teams, will see the two teams vying for the Ruby Chapman trophy.
Claxton thanked the family for accepting the honour, on behalf of the late outstanding allrounder and asked upcoming cricketers to model the zeal, energy and dedication that Ruby put into the game, prior to her untimely death due to the dreaded cancer scourge.
The two teams will face off at the VOJN grounds on Saturday 26th March, starting at 2 pm.
A member of the Chapman family will be on hand to present the trophy to the winning team, at the end of the game.
