Now that the 32 teams have been revealed, those making the list could now focus on their preparation for this year’s Georgetown Zone of the Guinness “Greatest of the Streets” competition, which is set for kicking off on March 15 at the National Park.
Fans are being assured that the long wait for the Guinness “Greatest of the Streets” competition, widely regarded as the most famous of the street football tournaments in the country, is now over, and all roads would now lead to the arena for the anticipated fireworks over the eight days of competition.
The teams making the cut are: Alexander Village, Sparta Boss, Albouystown, Sophia, North Ruimveldt, Leopold Street, Back Circle, North East La Penitence, Tiger Bay, Gold is Money, Stabroek Ballers, Festival City, Broad Street, Unstoppable, Bent Street, California Square, Lodge All Stars, Stabroek Ballers B, Bent Street Young Gunners, Bad A Yard, Up Top Boss, Laing Avenue Ballers, Street Ballers, Sophia B, Make It Happen, Ballers FC, Renegade All Stars, Airport Ballers, Rising Stars, Back Road Ballers, Tucville Rangers and Middle Road Ballers.

With the competition returning after an unavoidable hiatus, the organisers are pulling out all the stops to ensure that this hugely popular tournament makes a triumphant re-entry into the football arena. Lucrative prize monies and trophies totalling more than $1.5 million would be up for grabs, while an automatic berth into the National Final is assured.
Guinness Brand Executive Lee Baptiste, speaking recently, said that because of the tournament’s absence for a prolonged period, the promoters are just as excited and anxious as the teams and fans to see the unrivalled tournament make its return to the sports calendar.
“We are hoping that the tournament enjoys an exciting return, and it is played with the same level of discipline and keen rivalry that fans became accustomed to in previous years,” Baptiste has said.
He revealed that, to this end, they have been planning meticulously to ensure that teams, management staff, and fans who come out to the event have a great time, a feature that is usually associated with the tournament.
The other playing days are March 16th, 17th, 22nd, 23rd, 24th and 30th, while the final is set for March 31st.
