The Guyana Football Federation (GFF)/Tiger Rentals Under-13 National Developmental tournament continued last Saturday with the East Bank Demerara Football Association’s (EBDFA’s) Intra- Association leg of the tournament.
Play continued at the tournament’s usual venue, the GFF’s National Training Center (NTC) at Providence, East Bank Demerara (EBD), where Herstelling Raiders gained a walkover win from Agricola Red Triangle, who failed to show.
In the match that was played, the high-flying Swan continued their purple patch with an important 2-1 victory against Friendship All-Stars. Swan’s goals came off the boots of Shameer Daniels and Kevin De Goias, while Friendship’s lone goal was scored by Brandon Goolcharran.
Meanwhile, the West Demerara Football Association (WDFA) held the matchday two of their intra-association tournament at the West Demerara Secondary School ground also on Saturday, and two comprehensive 13-0 victories were recorded.
Eagles FC first won their match, and then Pouderoyen registered a similar 13-0 triumph.
The inter-ATC/club competition resumes this Saturday, February 11, 2023 at the NTC with four matches, beginning at 10:30hrs. Those fixtures cater for West Berbice clashing with East Coast Demerara in the opener, followed by East Berbice matching skills with Bartica in the second clash. The other two matchups will see Upper Demerara being pitted against East Bank Demerara in the third match, while the fourth and final game, which kicks off at 12:00hrs, will see West Demerara and Georgetown locked in battle.
Tiger Rentals Guyana has invested a whopping $10M into this tournament, which was launched in 2022. The Tiger Rentals-powered League is the first nationwide developmental under-13 football tournament that the local Federation has hosted.
