Fruta Conquerors will be led by captain Delon Williams who will be supported by midfielder Daniel Thomas, defender Lennox Arthur and Dennis ‘Lion’ Edwards between the uprights.
GFA General Secretary Odinga Lumumba promised that during this year competition would be more aggressive. “We have been given a mandate to develop the game of football in Georgetown and that’s what we plan to do. This year our aim is to fulfill all our obligations,” Lumumba said.
“We will have an aggressive league and spectators and players can expect football of a high quality.” This evening’s games would be preceded by an opening ceremony which includes a March Past of teams.
Among those anticipated to appear for Sunburst Camptown are Troy Prescod, Rishawn Sandiford, Joel Bond, Devon Forde and Anthony Sancho, while Fruta Conquerors line up contains Trevon Lythcott, Odell Williams, Kishern Lovell, Daniel Favourite and Lennox Charles.
