The Dominica Cricket Association(DCA) made a donation to one of Dominica’s cricket ambassadors, Tyrone Theophile.
Theophile, who was injured in a motorcycle accident last year and was flown to Martinique where he had a successful surgery, is scheduled to undergo another surgery sometime in May.
The estimated $25,000 Euros is needed for the operation and recovery process. The Government of Dominica has pledged to meet the cost of the operation.
The DCA presented Tyrone Theophile with a cheque of over $17,000 which was raised on his behalf through various fund raising events to assist with the cost of the upcoming surgery.
Theophile expressed thanks for the efforts of the DCA in raising funds. He also thanked those who supported the events in one way or another.
The Association also thanked the sponsors, the public and everyone who contributed in one way or another. They also pledged support to all cricketers on island.
