Chance for twins

Share post:

Twin brothers Daniel and Darius Joseph will leave the island today to take up a term’s cricket stint at the renowned King’s Bruton School in Somerset, England.

The St Michael School pair was invited to the English institution last year but had to defer the trip because of the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent travel restrictions in the United Kingdom.

The 14-year-olds will represent the school in cricket along with fulfilling their academic duties for the next term.

The trip was initially facilitated by English cricket coach Chris Berry, who toured Barbados a few years ago and spotted the boys’ talent. (NM)
