THE inaugural Beterverwagting/Triumph ‘8th of May Movement Emancipation Cohesion’ Football League is scheduled to be launched tomorrow at 17:00hrs at the Annex of the Calvary Baptist Church, Republic Drive (main road), Beterverwagting.

The league, which will feature Junior Shield and Senior Cup phases, will witness the participation of registered teams. The Junior Shield phase will be for Under-20 teams, with the age eligibility of players being those born on or after January 1, 1998.

These teams will test and demonstrate their skills in an attempt to lift the Gold Crown Honours, of the Junior Shield League. There will also be a Silver Plate and Bronze Award for the respective second- and third-placed teams. The Junior Shield will also feature a ‘Doving Skill Competition’.

This skill exercise will occur before and during the breaks of selective matches where designated team players will “dove” it out for a single overall league cash prize of $20 000 and the attainment of a champion trophy for bragging rights.
