It is simply a case of the best four teams in the competition being rewarded for their consistent performances since the commencement of the East Coast segment of the Guinness ‘Greatest of de Streets’ over one week ago.
The four survivors Melanie ‘A’, BV ‘A’, Church Yard United of Victoria and Plaisance have thrilled fans with their silky skills and tactical superiority and when they square off tonight for the right to divide prize money in excess of $800,000 along with trophies, those who converge at the Haslington Market Tarmac could feel at ease that all those components combined would be on full display.
In the opening encounter, Plaisance takes on BV ‘A’ at 20:00 hrs and this matchup should be a riveting affair, especially with the likes of Warren Gilkes and Carlos Matthews in their lineup, while BV ‘A’ will depend heavily on the performances of Reon Hopkinson, Quacy Price and the brilliant Delroy Deen to ensure their spot in the final.
In the second semi-final, Church Yard United takes on Melanie ‘A’ and this encounter has all the hallmarks of a bruising contest and picking a winner in this game has proven to be a difficult task.
The cool, calm and collective Delroy Deen, who has been the architect of many victories for Melanie ‘A’, will once again be called upon to spearhead their quest for a place in the final.
He is expected to receive support from sharp shooting Sherman Fraser and Jermaul George, who both looked extremely lethal in their quarter-final clash against a stubborn Victoria Eagles, while Darwayne Peters is anticipated to add some more punch to their offensive line.
On the other hand, Church Yard United has also exhibited a proclivity to be very offensive minded and looked deadly on the counter attacks and their chances of winning is just as high as that of Melanie ‘A’.
Shawn Daniels, Horace Graham and Rolex Gouveia will lead the strike force for Church Yard United and their performances to date have been a model of consistency so to underestimate them could prove costly for any opposition.
The winners of the two semifinals will meet in the final, while the losers play for third place.
Sixteen teams started the competition with the winner set to receive $400,000, runner-up $200,000 and 3rd place $150,000 along with trophies.
LISTEN HOW JAGDEO WILL MAKE ALL GUYANESE RICH!!!
