Jason Holder Parents Denise And Ronald Holder Signed Him For Cricket Camps
Jason Holder was born to Barbadian parents Denise and Ronald Holder in 1991.
Holder started playing cricket at eight years old after his father signed him up for summer camp in the Empire sports club. His international career was launched after his mother, Denise, enrolled him in the junior cricket program at Wanderers’ Cricket Club after seeing his talent.
While his older brother Andre pursued basketball, he chose to play cricket. With a height of 6 ft 7 in, he could have easily excelled in the sport, but cricket was where his heart lay. He gets his height from his parents. Holder’s mother stands tall at 6 ft 1 in, and his father stands at 6ft 4 in.
The elder Holders supported their child consistently as he was the first in their family to love and pursue cricket professionally.
Denise would join other mothers to raise funds so their sons under 13 could go on tour to England. However, her baby was tallest and youngest then, so she would carry Jason’s birth certificate to prove he was only nine.
