The Stanford 2020 Board representation comprised 10 of the

but was in full support of the meeting and very pleased with
the results.
Dr. Hunte was also very satisfied………… “what was achieved
today was a small step but a very important one. We all
recognise that to achieve our goals, which will all result
in the betterment of West Indies Cricket, we need to work
together and continue to have constant and open dialogue.”
“We have been very impressed by this meeting with Dr. Hunte.
He has shown us that he truly has West Indies Cricket as his
primary interest and we are all very heartened by his
immediate desire to work together with us as a team,” stated
Stanford Board Member Desmond Haynes following the meeting.
Both parties hope to be able to announce more on the
progress of the partnership in the near future.
