Troy Mendonca, co-director of the organisers, Petra, noted that with the smaller number of female teams (which adds to eight as compared to the 24 male teams), their competition would not start until the third week of action.
In this space, he posited, the Guyana Football Federation will conduct some training for the females, and courses for their coaches, in an attempt to fine tune everyone’s skills.
