The Bermuda Cricket Board [BCB] has paid tribute to Gary Fray for his decades of service to Bermudian cricket, sports administration and Warwick Workmen’s Club.
The BCB said, “Few individuals in Bermuda’s rich sporting history have dedicated their lives so selflessly to the growth, integrity, and governance of our national sport as Gary Fray. Over decades of unwavering service, Gary stood as a pillar of strength, wisdom, and fairness across both the national governing level and grassroots community sports.
“A Legacy of Governance at the Bermuda Cricket Board
“Gary’s impact on local cricket administration was transformative. During the early 1990s, he played an instrumental role in unifying local governing bodies to form a single, cohesive voice for Bermudian cricket—a milestone that reshaped the future of the sport on our island.
“Throughout his tenure on the BCB Executive Committee, Gary served with distinction in multiple key roles, including Treasurer, 2nd Vice President, and 1st Vice President. His financial acumen, honed through more than five decades in professional accounting, brought invaluable financial stability and transparency to the Board.
“Perhaps nowhere was his steady leadership more vital than in his role as Chairman of the BCB Disciplinary Committee. Gary approached every hearing with utmost impartiality, dignity, and standard of integrity. He understood that protecting the spirit of the game was paramount, earning the deep respect of players, club executives, and officials across the island. His monumental contributions were deservedly recognized internationally when he was awarded the ICC Lifetime Service Award.
“Heart and Soul of Warwick Workmen’s Club
“Beyond his national duties with the BCB, Gary’s heartbeat firmly for Warwick Workmen’s Club. Having joined the club as a young sportsman at age 16 and stepping onto the club’s board at just 20 years old, he dedicated over 50 years of continuous service to the institution.
“Over the decades, Gary filled nearly every executive role imaginable—Secretary, Treasurer, and ultimately, President. Under his stewardship, Warwick Workmen’s Club remained a vital cultural, social, and athletic hub for the Warwick parish community. Whether managing day-to-day operations or preserving the history of a club built on community resilience, Gary lead by example with quiet humility and boundless heart.
“A Model Administrator and True Gentleman
“Gary represented the very best of Bermudian sportsmanship. He was a leader who never sought the spotlight for himself, but instead poured his energy into building structured, fair, and welcoming environments where generations of young athletes could thrive.
“To Gary, we extend our deepest gratitude for your decades of selfless labor, your firm guidance, and your enduring legacy in Bermudian cricket. The foundation you built will continue to support our sport for generations to come.
“On behalf of the Bermuda Cricket Board, and the entire Bermudian cricket family: Thank you, Gary Fray.”
