“One Guyana” Basketball tournament returns to the National Gymnasium on Saturday with three exciting games. The Jaguar Conference will kick off the action at 17:00h with McDoom/Prospect Kobras Basketball Club battling against Lamaha Springs/Park Pepsi Sonics.
This game will be followed at 19:00h by the young and trending Kwakwani Untouchables going up against the Wortmanville Pacesetters in a battle for top seed in the Harpy Eagle Conference.
To end the day’s action, Stabroek Eagles will battle Meadowbrook Nets in a very competitive matchup, as both teams have good young talents.
The tournament kicked off with 14 teams in the Harpy Eagle and Jaguar Conferences, with a projected 56 to 63 games. The tournament will see teams from the Jaguar and Harpy Eagle Conferences playing the teams within their conference twice, with the top four teams qualifying for the playoffs. The number one-ranked team plays the fourth-ranked team, and the number two team plays the third-ranked team. Winners of the playoff games will then advance to their Conference Finals, where they will play the best two of three games to determine who advances to the National Finals.
The tournament-winning team will receive $1 million along with trophies, while the runners-up will receive $500,000 plus trophies.
The tournament was made possible by sponsorship from the Culture, Youth and Sport Ministry; G-Boats Guyana; the National Sports Commission; Guyana Basketball Federation, and Georgetown Basketball Federation.
