Ten teams contested the competition, including several first-time participants. For a second consecutive season, the Leeward and Windward Islands teams were each broken up into two teams – Antigua and Barbuda and Saint Vincent and the Grenadines entered separate teams, with players from the remaining countries playing for "Rest of Leeward Islands" and "Rest of Windward Islands" teams. A University of the West Indies team entered for the first time, while Canada were invited as a guest team.[1] The semi-finals and final of the competition were all held in Discovery Bay, Jamaica, with Barbados eventually defeating Jamaica in the final to win their fifth domestic one-day title (and first since the 1987–88 season).[2] Barbadian batsman Floyd Reifer led the tournament in runs, while Merv Dillon of Trinidad and Tobago and Daren Powell of Jamaica were the equal leading wicket-takers.[3][4]
