Ten teams contested the competition, divided into two groups of five. For a third consecutive season, Antigua and Barbuda entered as a separate team, with the remaining Leeward Islands players competing for a "Rest of Leeward Islands" team. A University of the West Indies team entered for the second and final time, while the West Indies under-19s competed for the first time. Canada were invited as the sole international guest team.[1] The semi-finals and final of the competition were all held in Discovery Bay, Jamaica, with Guyana eventually defeating Barbados in the final to win their eighth domestic one-day title.[2] Guyanese batsman Ramnaresh Sarwan led the tournament in runs, while four bowlers (Dinanath Ramnarine, Pedro Collins, Ian Bradshaw, and Mahendra Nagamootoo) were the joint leading wicket-takers.[3][4]
