00:00Even though technocrats are not in the race for the TNT Women's Cricket Association premier T20 title,
00:06the players can be satisfied with their achievements in 2025.
00:10So says manager Arlene Alley, who believes technocrats did well in the limited overs tournament,
00:16which was eventually won by PowerGen.
00:18Last year we would have failed to win any of our 50-over games.
00:22But this year out of six, we would have won two.
00:25Three we would have lost and one had no outcome.
00:27We also saw an inclusion of more of the Tobago unions as part of our setup,
00:33where we had one last year and this year we were able to include four more.
00:37You know, we bridging the gap between Trinidad and Tobago,
00:40trying to include more of the Tobago unions as part of our setup.
00:47Kwebina Alexander is also a member of technocrats,
00:50but is currently with the TNT Red Force Divas playing in the CWI Women's T20 Blaze in St. Vincent.
00:56According to Alley, women's cricket must be given more attention than it gets in the Twin Island country.
01:02As such, she is making a plea to corporate TNT to assist in whatever way possible.
01:07Female cricketers developing at a fast pace,
01:10and I'm making a plea to corporate Trinidad,
01:12come on board and help support my club to become a force to be reckoned with.
01:17by developing and assisting the local talent in an aim to promote sportsmanship through the game of cricket.
01:27Technocrats is more than just a team.
01:29We are a family.
01:31And we strive to foster discipline, teamwork and personal growth for players of all ages.
01:39Alley is grateful that the team is allowed to train at the Fulham Sports Club ground in Arima.
01:43But she is hoping one day that technocrats can find a place that they can call home.
01:48Yes, we aspire to have a permanent home base
01:51and establish ourselves as a true community-based cricket side.
01:56Having a stable base will allow us to grow grassroot participation,
02:00build strong local ties and represent our community with pride both on and off the field.
02:06We have five players from Tobago.
02:09We have three from Stout, from South, Gasparlo, point 14.
02:14We have six from Central.
02:16And the rest will come from the East-West Corridor.
02:19Seven as far as Maracas.
02:21We have two sisters from up there.
02:23The 2025 season is coming to an end
02:26with technocrats set to play for pride in their final game against AC women.
02:32Venod, now on your team's export.
02:33Thanks for your time.
02:50Let's go.
