Saturday night fever at CASH as six more teams to book second round slots

FUTSAL fans are in for another exciting night of skill and endurance as night three of the inaugural June Madness Futsal Championship is set to unfold at the Cliff Anderson Sports Hall from 20:00 hours.

Given the fact that this championship, powered by the Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sport and Ansa McAl, is being played using the knock-out format, it’s all to play for from the start of matches.

Another exciting feature is the yellow ball which can be requested by either team four minutes after the games commence and six minutes before the action conclude. A goal scored within the two-minute life of the yellow ball by either team shall be counted as two (2).

One team has been successful to date with the ball, Albouystown ‘A’ through Ezikiel Telford who ended the match with a helmet-trick in their 9-0 whipping of Campbellville.

Tonight’s opening clash will see Stevedore Ballers challenging Westside Ballers. From 20:45 hours, Mocha Red Force will throw down the gauntlet to fellow East Bank side, Timehri Warriors, followed by Linden All Star against Show Stoppers.

Gaza Squad will then take centre stage when they come up against Gladiators with the penultimate showdown of the night featuring Real Sport and Kitty Hustlers. The night’s main attraction is between North Ruimveldt and Team Family.
