St Patrick’s College Jaffna – Cricket Sponsorship Fund
SPC Cricket Fund was the genesis of the “Silver Jubilee Perpetual Fund“. In January 2008, Rev Fr Justin Gnanapragasam, then Rector of the College, visited Melbourne and requested that the Melbourne OBA undertake the sponsorship of some of the cricket activities of the College on an ongoing basis. The Committee decided to form the “SPC Cricket Fund” and between 2008 and 2016, a total of $12,000 was sent to the College for this purpose including a prize of $150 (Rs 16,700) presented to Rishan Tudor – the First XI wicketkeeper-batsman of the 2010 team – who was selected in the national squad for the Asia Cup in the 2010/2011 season. In 2017, the SPC Cricket Fund morphed into the “Silver Jubilee Perpetual Fund”. The remittances by SPC Cricket Fund are as below:
