Semi-finals set for today

Today will be ‘D’ Day for the remaining four teams in the 2023 Digicel Schools Football Championships.
With action set for the Ministry of Education ground on Carifesta Avenue, a spot in the final is what is at stake for today’s winners.
In the first of the two semi-finals, DC Caesar Fox Secondary will have to overcome the challenges of Carmel Secondary school.

That match is set for 17:00hrs.

DC Caesar Fox Secondary banked on a pair of braces from Carrington Isaacs and Bevon Jones as well as a single strike from Anthonio Isaacs; the region seven side beating Charlestown 5-0.
On the other hand, Ian Daniels, Marcus Layne and Omar Husbands scored once each to ensure Carmel were into the final four; the winners coasting like a well-oiled machine in their 3-1 win over Dolphin.

The other semi-final, which begins at 19:00hrs, will pit Waramuri Top against St. Ignatius.
The Region Nine champions were victors over Tucville via a 5-1 margin much to the pleasure of those gathered. Romel Ernest’s hat-trick led the way for the out-of-town side, with support from Akon Albert and Morgan Turama, proving invaluable.

They will be hoping for another similar performance from the lads when the action gets going

But their Region One side, Waramuri, are no push-overs and their 2-1 win over Santa Rosa for the final semi-final place represented their hardest test to date.

Bruce Vincent and Zundel Adams were the quarter-final scorers and they will be looking to showcase their skills again.

The winners will march on to the final while the losing semi-finalists will battle for third place.

This edition of the tournament is organised by the Petra Organisation.
