Play in the 77th Birthday Inter Ward, Street and Village Knockout
16-team football fiesta for Mayor
Hamilton Green continues this evening at the Georgetown Football Club ground, Bourda following action on opening night, Tuesday.
Following Tuesday’s play, Western B, Timehri Panthers, Kuru Kuru Warriors, North East La Penitence, Alexander Street, Mojo Lions, Grove and Reggae Boys have advanced to the next round and closer to the Body Max and International Guyanese entertainer Eddie Grant sponsored respective $200,000 and $100,000 first and second prizes.
The fiesta heats up with several potential exciting matches which will see West Front Road vs Wales, Alexander Village vs Goed Fortuin, Mocha vs Castillo Schemers, West Side All Stars vs Brave Heart, broad Street vs Stewartville, War Mongers vs Uitvlugt, Western A vs Leopold Street and Lima Dam vs Den Amstel.
Among some of the leading players on show will be Sceyon Hope, Llyton Ramsay, Nedd Fraser and Shem Porter who all bring excitement with their brand of play.
Games are set to last 30 minutes each. The no offside rule would be in effect, adding to the competitiveness and excitement of the event. A game ending in a stalemate after the 30 minutes will go straight to the sudden death penalty shootout
mode.
Coordinator Lennox Arthur noted that Rules 5 and 19 will be in full force and teams should take particular note. Rule 5 concerns teams arriving one hour before the start of their respective games, while Rule 19 notes that teams arriving late for their games will forfeit those games, handing the other team present a walkover.
The tournament is being officiated by referees from the Guyana Football Referees Council and players are free to represent any team of their choice once they are registered with that team.
Among the sponsors are; Body Max Gym who donated the first prize, Guyanese International
star Eddie Grant who put up the second prize, BK International, Chris Fernandes, New Thriving Restaurant, Sterling Products, Winston Rambarran, Nigel’s Super Market, Dr. Colin Watson, Crown Mining, Farfan and Mendes, James Bovell of the Business School and Clem Duncan Snr of Swansea.
