Don't waste time fighting up to go in one of those corporate boxes.

De best place to enjoy the game is in the grass mound... followed by the regular stands.

But to answer his question, yes its a decent amount to secure one of those boxes. ExxonMobil, RBL, New GPC (the GAW owner) and ah few other local companies usually snap it up every year.

Ah feel Jeremy got his own too... he controls the lights for Jagdeo Stadium... he's on duty tonight lol

On ah side note... they need to renovate the stadium. It's dated. Was in the green stand the other day and some of the seats are broken, the metal frame rotten out.... washrooms are a nightmare.

I was saying the same thing on another thread a few months ago.

That stadium is well overdue for a massive renovation like what the Titties did to BCL stadium, which (apart from the parking issues) in my opinion is the best in the Caribbean at the moment in terms of modern facilities and seating etc.

Probably waiting on Hety stadium in Berbice to complete and then they gonna do some work on this one.

It should be ready for next year's CPL.

India I believe gifted that stadium to Guyana pre oil. It serves well but it’s time to step things up with a modern, bigger stadium. Knock it down and start over.

Most likely regular games. Playoffs and final suppose to be in Bim next year.

Maybe they will try to get the WCPL... but most likely the GSL will be played at Hetty stadium lol

Bourda would not be ideal, too many cars in the country now. Logistical constraints.

Yes, I agree. Was in the same stand for the Global Super League.
What Guyanese need to understand, is that regular maintenance is part of the upkeep of any building or structure. Seems like a foreign concept still in 2025.razz
