WOMEN WELCOME - Jamaica Tallawahs open to franchise expansion

Thu, Oct 27, '22

CHIEF Executive Officer Jeff Miller says that the Jamaica Tallawahs franchise is open to creating a women's team to take part in the Women's Caribbean Premier League (CPL), should the opportunity present itself next season.

The first-ever Women's CPL was staged between August and September and featured three teams — Guyana Amazon Warriors, Barbados Royals, and champions Trinbago Knight Riders.
