Darren Sammy who led the team previously will be no longer a player for the team. He has now taken up the role of T20 Consultant and Brand Ambassador for the St Lucia Zouks franchise.

“It’s been an absolute pleasure to have led and been a part of the St Lucia Zouks from its inception. Even though some may say good things must come to an end it will not be in this instant. St Lucia Zouks and I will always be a team. But since venturing into coaching, I realize I have a new passion that can allow me to still contribute and play a part in taking the franchise forward on its quest to winning a CPL title and developing future stars!”, Daren Sammy said.

 “I have loved my interaction with him. Thank you very much for what you have done and look forward to working with you in the future. Preparations are ongoing as the franchise works aggressively on identifying exceptional players to bring to the team to victory.”, Coach Andy Flower expressed his views of Daren Sammy.

The Zouks still have 9 spots left to fill in their squad and the remaining players will be announced in the coming few days.
