Football players in Rose Hall Town will be given the opportunity to showcase their skills
when the Rose Hall Town Pepsi Under-19 Cricket team hosts a 5-a-side knockout tournament at the Area ‘H’ ground tomorrow.
Four teams would be contesting the tournament which has been organised as part of activities to coincide with the club’s Silver Jubilee celebrations.
Hilbert Foster, Secretary/CEO of the club commenting, noted that over the years, they have not placed a lot of emphasis on the world’s most popular game for many reasons, but the hosting of this tournament would mark the revival of that policy.
The tournament would kick off at 15:00hrs on the all weather court and would be part of the club’s Tribute to Naeem Nasir activities. A 12-team five-over cricket tournament, sponsored by Bakewell would also be played at the same time at the ground.
The teams will be captained by Troy Paul, Trevor Sampson, Junior Ross and Benjamin Harry with the winner set to receive a trophy named after Leon Wiggins, the first treasurer of the RHTY&SC and a former football coordinator. Wiggins would hand over the prizes at the conclusion of the tournament.
Foster indicated that he would be closely monitoring the attitude and discipline of the players during the tournament with a view of deciding the club’s role in further investment in football.
He noted that the club was willing to assist football but only in an atmosphere of discipline and commitment. The four competing teams are:
Team A – Troy Paul, Leroy Hashley, D Delroy Adams, Kevin Paul.
Team B – Trevor Sampson, Anathony Ramalha, Tyran Hasley, Shaquille Batson and Samuel Khan.
Team C – Benjamin Harry, Martland Sanka, Levin Ross, Dion Marks and Raio Mootoo.
Team D – Junior Ross, Keion James, Leroy Harry, Ray Jaden and D.Hicks
