Broomes pulls out of BCA presidency race

THE presidency of the Barbados Cricket Association (BCA) is now a three-man race.

That’s because retired school principal Jeff Broomes is no longer interested in becoming chief administrator.

Broomes told NATIONSPORT that his teaching duties in preparing dozens of children for the Common Entrance Examinations had prompted his decision to pull out of the race.

“I was confident and very much at peace in my move towards becoming the next president of the Barbados Cricket Association. Then the Common Entrance results came back. I have since been bombarded with phone calls from children and parents thanking me for the contribution that I would have made in helping them develop enough to enter one school or another as a result of the free weekly lessons that I teach at the various locations. I have been moved and touched in more ways than one could imagine,” Broomes said. (MK)
