The Mayor Hamilton Green 81st birthday 7-a-side Inter-ward Football competition coordinated by
former National footballer Lennox Arthur will conclude on Sunday at the Den Amstel ground on the West of Demerara with the eight team finals starting at 2:00pm.
The 32-team tournament, which saw the finals being rescheduled from late last year to accommodate the various year end tournaments by the associations, is now down to the last eight battling for a place in the championship game or even a final four placing to cash in on the money.
The teams are battling for a first prize of $200,000 and the John Fernandes trophy, while the other top four finishers will collect; $100,000 and Youth and Sports Trophy, $70,000 and China Trading trophy and $30,000 and the Business School trophy.
Additionally AHL Kissoon has donated a 3-piece suite for the top scorer, while Ricks and Sari will give 10 hampers each to the winning and runner up teams.
The action on Sunday opens with Kitty versus Lima Dam at 2:00pm, followed at approximately half an hour intervals, by Uitvlugt against Haslington, Victoria battle Pouderoyen and Den Amstel oppose Mahaica. The respective winners will clash in the semifinals from 4:00pm, while the third place playoff is set for 5:00pm and the grand finale is at 5:30pm.
Several outstanding players are to be on show Sunday with Trayon Bobb (Uitvlugt) leading the line-up. He is the top goal-scorer with six to date and is in line for that AH&L Kissoon prize. Others in contention are Quincy Holder (Mahaica) with three, Marvin Josiah (Pouderoyen), Keon Moore (Victoria), Kevaughn Ward
(Den Amstel) and Anthony Sancho (Kitty) on two apiece and Andrea Hector (Den Amstel).
Among the other sponsors that have contributed to the successful staging of the event are: Banks DIH, Massy, Beepat and Sons, CBR Mining, MACORP, Guyana Beverage, home of Busta soft drinks, Aruwai Mining, IPA, Muneshwar’s, E Networks, CIDI, BEV Processors, EC Vieira, Cummings Electrical, Crown Mining, Sattar Gafoor, Kennav HDL and Nigel Pyle and others.
Football fans are promised an exciting afternoon of football at Den Amstel and massive home support is anticipated for the home team as they look and will be encouraged to claim the spoils.
