Kit sponsorship for Redhill cricketers

The handover took place at the Danville Park sports field in Durban North.

THE Hollywood Foundation Team, accompanied by Proteas spin bowler and brand ambassador Keshav Maharaj, presented the DHS RHYTHM Cricket Club with a much-needed kit and equipment as part of their cricket sponsorship initiative last Tuesday.

Expressing deep appreciation for the support of cricket sponsorship received from the Hollywood Foundation, Mags Reddy, chairperson of the DHS RHYTHM Cricket Club, highlighted the significance of community development in cricket.

“The Hollywood Foundation’s contribution to the DHS RHYTHM Cricket Club is a testament to their dedication to supporting sports clubs and empowering young talent. Through partnerships like these, we can continue to make a positive impact on the development of cricket in our communities,” said Reddy.

Boasting a remarkable heritage, dating back to 1939, when it was known as the Pirates Cricket Club, the DHS RHYTHM Cricket Club has since merged with the DHS Old Boys Cricket Club in 2005 and the RHYTHM Cricket Club, representing the Redhill Youth Movement.

Over the years, the club has successfully produced notable players like Hashim Amla, Imraan Khan, Ahmed Amla, and several schoolboy cricketers who continue to represent the province at various age-group levels.

When I am not penning the latest human interest piece, crime or municipal bit, and occasionally a sports update, you can find me in the place I love most – at home with my beautiful family – cooking up a storm, soaking up the sun with a gin and tonic in hand or binge-watching a good series or documentary.
