Relay for Life will take the form of a Cricket Fete Match on Saturday 19th July 2025 at the Queen’s Park Oval, 94 Tragarete Road, Port of Spain. We will host a T20 hard ball match. This will be played by players from the major cricket clubs around the country, against an All-Stars Team made up of top cricketers (past and present). Cricket Clubs from around the country are being approached to not only participate in the matches but to encourage community engagement and par􀆟cipa􀆟on. The Trinidad and Tobago Cancer Society values the opportunity to widen its reach and engage with communities across the country to create a greater awareness on the connection between lifestyle and cancer.

The All Star Cricket Team will include, Rayad Emrit, Imran Khan, Jason Mohammed, Anisa Mohammed, Britney Cooper, Leeann Kirby and. more. This promises to be an exciting and fun filled event to bring people and communities together. Additionally, bringing the cricketing communities together will foster kinship and camaraderie among the members of the local cricket clubs. Playing alongside our cricketing heroes would empower players to improve their skills, gain valuable experience, and build lasting relationships with fellow enthusiasts.
