Limacol Schools’ Football League: Entertaining clashes expected today as League enters 6th round

With two rounds remaining in the Limacol Schools’ Football League, the Ministry of Education (MoE) Ground on Carifesta Avenue is set to come alive today when play resumes, with teams eager to grab points on the last laps.
With lots on the line for the top three finishers in the League, Chase’s Academic Foundation currently lead the proceedings, followed by Bartica Secondary, Carmel Secondary and Santa Rosa Secondary respectively.
Today’s first game in the New GPC Inc-sponsored tournament will see a top-two clash starting from 13:00hrs and involving Chase’s Academy and Bartica Secondary going head-to-head for possibly a spot at the top of the table heading into the final round.
Having been a force in the competition, Chase stumbled last weekend when they were without the services of a few key players, and had to settle for a draw against Mackenzie High. However, they will look to make a comeback today, but Bartica Secondary, in defeating Santa Rosa Secondary last weekend, proved that they are no pushovers.

A nail-biter is thus anticipated.
Two teams who haven’t been at their best this tournament, Christianburg Wismar Secondary and Ann’s Grove Secondary, will be looking for redemption at the expense of each other in the game that follows. With both languishing in the bottom half of the points table, their match is set for a 15:00hrs kickoff and possibly fireworks.
The final game of the day is likely to be an entertaining spectacle involving Carmel Secondary and Santa Rosa Secondary. Both championing separate schools’ football tournaments this year, Carmel (Digicel Champions) and Santa Rosa (Milo Champions) will have a lot to prove on the field, with the first whistle expected to be sounded at 16:30hrs.
Heading into the Sixth round with 13 points from 4 wins and a draw and a whopping +19 goal difference, Chase’s Academy currently lead the points table. Tied on points are Bartica Secondary and Carmel Secondary, both with 12 points from 4 wins in 5 rounds. However, Bartica has a superior goal difference of +7, as compared to Carmel’s +4.
Santa Rosa Secondary, with 9 points from two wins, two draws and a loss are in fourth, while Mackenzie High with 5 points from a win and two draws complete the top 5. Ann’s Grove Secondary have 4 points heading into this round, while Christianburg Wismar have 3, and East Ruimveldt Secondary are yet to make their mark.
