Elite League: Slingerz FC stay top; Police, Santos, Monedderlust also secure wins

Slingerz Football Club continued their great form as they registered another win in the 2025 edition of the Elite League as the competition continued at the National Training Center (NTC) in Providence on the weekend of April 12 and 13, 2025.

On Saturday, the Monedderlust Football Club gave Mainstay Goldstar FC yet another thrashing, highlighting their ongoing problems in this tournament. Rayan Rose scored the game’s first goal in the 20th minute, setting the tone. Jaden Thom’s goal shortly before halftime added to the suffering. As they hammered their opponents, Monedderlust FC kept up their impressive play. The game ended with a brace from Tyrone Delph after Terrence Lewis scored the third goal of the evening. Goldstar’s humiliating 5-0 loss keeps them in last place in the standings.
Guyana Police Force FC completely outplayed an in-form Ann’s Grove team in the second game of the day. Nicolas McArthur scored early in the game (15’) and quickly netted another in the 18th minute. Police Force FC continued to play slick football as they added a third just before halftime via Ryan Hackett. Darren Benjamin scored in the 72nd minute to give the Guyana Police Force a commanding four-goal lead. Neron Barrow joined in on the action, scoring twice as Ann’s Grove United went on to suffer a 6-0 defeat.

Then on Sunday, in the first game, Den Amstel Football Club went to battle with Santos Football Club. In the first half, both teams showed endeavour and fight during the first 45 minutes of the game. The in-form Deon Alfred scored once again in the 17th minute as Den Amstel took the lead. Akil Plass got the equaliser for Santos FC as the game progressed in the 31st minute. Both teams in the second half pushed and fought, but it was Shem James who came up with the decisive moment of the game (77’), giving Santos the lead. Santos went on to claim victory as the game ended 2-1.
In the last game of the weekend, the table toppers, Slingerz Football Club, went up against Western Tigers. Kemar Beckford got Slingerz off to a good start as he scored an excellent goal in the 11th minute. Tigers continued to fight, but opened their scoresheet in the second half as halftime came with the score at 1-0. Beckford then went on to double Slingerz’s lead (54’) as their fans motivated them to keep going. Leo Lovell’s 68th-minute goal basically demoralised the Tigers, as they knew the chances of getting a result from the game were unlikely. Joshua Browne scored a consolation goal in added time for Tigers, but Slingerz FC were the happier of the teams with their 3-1 victory.
The Elite League is set to continue over the weekend.
