The Tiger Rentals-Guyana Football Federation (GFF) Under-13 Boys’ Development League concluded on Thursday last at the Federation’s National Training Center (NTC) at Providence, East Bank Demerara with the East (Coast) Demerara Football Association becoming the first Inter-Association champions.
With four games on the cards on Thursday, both the East Demerara and Georgetown Associations were tied on points in the race to the inter-association championship. However, while East Coast thumped East Berbice, Georgetown was not as fortunate in their encounter with the East Bank Association team.
For East Coast, Isaiah Williams lit up the NTC with 4 goals to lead the charge in his team’s 6-1 victory; and Shekiel Callender and Mark Glasgow contributed one each to the East Coast tally. Rayon Captain was the lone marksman for East Berbice.
Jason Williams, Michael Correia and Nyhil George each netted once for the East Bank Football Association in its 3-1 win over Georgetown FA. For the capital city side, Enzo Matte was the only youngster to find the back of the net.
In other matches on the final game day, Reyson Mingo’s solitary goal was all it took for West Berbice to defeat Bartica Football Association. And Upper Demerara Football Association enjoyed a 2-0 win in their clash with West Demerara. Devon Stewart and Pharez Noble were the ones to beat the keeper for the victory.
With the Inter-Association component of the Tiger Rentals U-13 league concluded, the Intra- Association part of the league is still ongoing. The U13 league was first launched in May 2022 with a $10M price tag from the title sponsors.
