Matches continue in Essequibo

GFF-Pele Alumni Frank Watson National U-15 Inter-Association…

The Essequibo leg of the GFF-Pele Alumni “Frank Watson” National U-15 Inter-Association Club Tournament will continue this weekend at the Anna Regina Community Centre Ground.
The first match is scheduled to kick off at 09:00h today with teams in Cluster 3 – Darmouth Dominators FC (Essequibo-Pomeroon FA), Rising Stars FC (Bartic FA) and Atkinson Brothers from Region One – each playing in a round-robin format to determine the winner of the cluster.
Intense action is expected as the GFF seeks to conduct Talent Identification and expand the player pool from among those participating in the tournament, including the Atkinson Brothers, a team based in Region One. The GFF, in its efforts to facilitate football development in the hinterland and incorporate the available talent in the national programme, had established a Steering Committee, which coordinated and executed the tournament in the region.
This weekend’s action follows last weekend’s playoff held at the GFF National Training Centre where teams of Cluster 1 and 2 were engaged with Santos FC and FC Eagles coming out as winners of the respective clusters.
The winner of the respective Clusters will face off with Tabatinga FC from the Rupununi Football Association in the finals set for February 16 at the GFF National Training Centre.
