Renowned South African Cricket team, the Multiply Titans, will be visiting Seychelles later this month. The trip is being organized as part of their pre-season preparation and the Pretoria-based team will be arriving in Seychelles on Thursday, 23 August for four days of team-building.
For the duration of their stay the team will be faced with a mix of training, gym work, team building activities, and of course a little time out to explore Seychelles. The team will also facilitate a cricket coaching session with young cricket enthusiasts. A total of 220 young girls and boys from schools around Mahé will be taking part in the coaching clinic.
As part of the tour, a friendly Twenty20 encounter against a local side the Gran Kaz Kings will be held on Sunday 26 August, at the Stad Popiler. Speaking of the tour, Titans Cricket Chief Executive Office, Dr. Jacques Faul said: “We are absolutely thrilled to be traveling to Seychelles, it is something the team is very much looking forward to.
“The pre-season tour has always been an essential part of the team’s preparations heading into a new season, and we believe the facilities and opposition offered by SCA will add immense value to their preparation. Seychelles is an emerging cricket nation, and to be able to be part of their development, even for a few days, is something that the franchise takes great pride in.”
Accompanying the Titans, to document their sojourn, will be a production crew. The pre-season tour will be broadcast on SuperSport, upon their return to South Africa which will give great visibility to the destination.
The Titans’ visit to Seychelles is being made possible by Gran Kaz Entertainment in collaboration with Avani Seychelles and Mason’s Travel. Other partners include the Seychelles Cricket Association, The National Sports Council and the Seychelles Tourism Board.
