E. David Burt, JP, MP There is no doubt that historians will record 2020 as the most disruptive year to Bermuda’s culture and lifestyle in our long history. Most of our cultural expressions, the amazing opportunities that we enjoy to ‘be Bermudian’ every year, were restricted, suspended, or even cancelled; and for social people like us, that isolation has been tough. Everything from launching the League in Spring to playing and watching Cup Match in Summer was lost due to the Covid-19 pandemic; and for athletes…just trying to stay fit during shelter-in-place was a massive challenge. Then, even after Players got used to competing under the ‘New Normal’, Hurricane Paulette came along to conclude the League early. It is therefore important that we recognise the vision and organisation of the BCB’s and Clubs’ Administrators; to thank the Officials who maintained readiness; and to appreciate the sacrifice and commitment of Bermuda’s cricketers. Accordingly, on behalf of the Government and People of Bermuda, I proudly congratulate and celebrate the BCB, its Member Clubs, the Officials, and the Players who ‘kept their eye on the ball and stuck to the wicket knowing the runs would come’ during these extraordinary times. We are proud of you all, and I hope that 2021 allows a return to the sport we love, full of the excitement, banter, and uniquely decent behaviour that defines Cricket across the globe. Congratulations and Best Wishes for the remainder of the Year. Sincerely, The Hon. E.
