Dr. Colin Watson, a Washington DC based Guyanese who had assured a set of new uniforms for the winner of the 22nd edition of the Kashif and Shanghai Football tournament, has delivered as promised to the Buxton United Football Club.
At a simple presentation held at the Buxton Community Centre ground on Sunday afternoon, Roxanne Hunter, Finance Assistant of the Kashif and Shanghai Organisation, handed over the uniforms to the
representatives of the Buxton United Football Club.
“This is part of the package promised to the winning team of the tournament,” explained Hunter upon presenting the uniforms to some players who had gathered.
Colin Watson is the twin brother of Clyde, better known as ‘Oiler’ a former national stalwart and has been making such contributions to the tournament over the past eight years.
Buxton United became the second East Coast team to lift the winner’s trophy for Guyana’s most prestigious football event after defeating Amelia’s Ward United on penalty kicks at the Guyana National Stadium on January 1.
Their run to the final seemed like a fairytale, having defeated both BK International Western Tigers and Guyana’s number one club Alpha ‘The Hammer’ United in the process.
They had received the winning purse of $4M, while Dwayne Jacobs, who had captained the team in the tournament, was named the Most Valuable Player (MVP) and drove off with the Toyota Allex compliments of Edward B Beharry and Company.
