The Petra Organization will soon be making strides to construct two new goals, compliments of the generosity of Atlantic Marine Supplies Inc. (AMSI).
According to a missive from the Organization, the AMSI, located at Eccles Public Road, East Bank Demerara, has made a monetary donation to Petra, and that has made it possible for the goals to be constructed. The goals will be used on the Ministry of Education (MoE) Ground on Carifesta Avenue to complement schools’ football tournaments.
The gesture from AMSI, along with gestures from others, has made it possible for the Organization to now enjoy use of both the Ministry of Education (MoE) and the nearby National Insurance Scheme (NIS) grounds to host their programmes.
The Petra Organization wishes to express heartfelt gratitude and appreciation to AMSI and all the other companies, supporters and well-wishers who made the completion of the project possible. Petra also extends gratitude to Mr. Brentnol Bourne, the designers and fabricator of the goals.
Meanwhile, Petra-organized Milo Schools’ Under-18 football tournament will head into the quarterfinal stage at the aforementioned Ministry of Education (MoE) Ground this Sunday. In the quarterfinals, Chase’s Academy will take on Ann’s Grove Secondary, while an all-Linden clash will see defending Champions Christianburg Wismar battling rivals Mackenzie High School.
East Ruimveldt Secondary and Santa Rosa Secondary will duke it out for a spot in the semifinal, while Carmel Secondary and Bartica Secondary would lock horns with the same goal in mind.
The quarterfinal action is set to kick off at 12pm on Sunday, April 16, 2023.
