From Tallawahs to Kingsmen

When the Republic Bank Caribbean Premier League (CPL) begins in 2026, the Jamaican franchise involved will be known as the Jamaica Kingsmen, marking an exciting new chapter for cricket in the region. According to the CPL, “The Jamaica Kingsmen will represent Jamaica in the CPL, bringing a fresh identity, renewed energy, and a strong commitment to excellence both on and off the field. “The addition of the Kingsmen reinforces the CPL’s ongoing mission to grow the game across the Caribbean while celebrating the unique culture and passion of each territory.”
