Blue Water U15 Girls football Development League 2023: Tucville, Lodge draw thrilling encounter

The Girls of Tucville Secondary

Neither Tucville Secondary nor Lodge Secondary disappointed supporters in the Guyana Football Federation (GFF) Blue Water U15 Girls’ Development League, as they played to a thrilling nil-nil draw on Friday, March 17, at the Georgetown Football Club ground.
Tucville and Lodge Secondary schools are two of the strongest teams in the league, and with both teams maintaining strong defensive strategies, on several occasions strikers on both sides came close to scoring, as teammates, fans and coaches cheered them on. However, after the final whistle, there was genuine respect on the pitch between students and coaches.
