Thursday, April 29, 2004 - Four players from the Castries-East Football
League are to be the guests of tour operating company, Virgin Holidays at a
Manchester United game in the United Kingdom.
That initiative from Virgin Holidays came about as a result of the performance
of some exceptional players during a three month football tournament, involving
teams form the Castries-East Constituency sponsored by that tour operating
company.
Parliamentary Representative for the Castries-East constituency and Minister for
Tourism, Honourable Philip J. Pierre, who presented the recipients with their
airline return tickets to London on Wednesday, April 28th, 2004 at a ceremony at
the Government Information Service (GIS), says this should serve as a catalyst
to spur on youths of the Castries-East community.
“I really want to thank Virgin Holidays and thank the organisation that put the
tournament together. This shows that there are rewards available when you do
your best and you strive for the top.” Minister Pierre said.
The four exceptional players coming out of the Castries-East Football Tournament
to travel to London for the Manchester United game are, Rafferty Noelien, who
was selected as the most valuable player during the tournament; Ryan Esnard,
best goal keeper; Hilary Charles, the most disciplined player; and Julian
Nacisse, who scored the most goals.
The Castries East Football Tournament was won by the Tou-Rouge Community.
