DURING the opening of the Freedom Farm Baseball League on Saturday, Minister of Youth, Sports and Culture, Charles Maynard confirmed that the road from Yamacraw Road leading to the field will be renamed Freedom Farm Way. Mr Maynard, however, did not disclose exactly when it will take place, but he commended all of the volunteers, who have helped to make the league a vibrant one. Member of Parliament for Elizabeth, Ryan Pinder; FNM candidate for Elizabeth, Dr. Dwayne Sands and DNA candidate Charlene Paul all addressed parents, coaches and players. Former Major League Ed Armbrister of the Cincinnati Reds, and President of the BBF, Mr. Craig Kemp brought greetings as well. This season is dedicated to Antoan Richardson, who was called up to the Braves late last season. All teams shirts are emblazoned with Richardson's name on their sleeve. Freedom Farm currently has two other players in professional baseball - Albert Cartwright in the Astros' organization and Sean Albury with the Brewers. Freedom Farm will host a banquet on January 28th at the Wyndham in honour of Richardson with proceeds going to Freedom Farm.
