Courts Optical Pee Wee football…

ROUND Three of the Courts Optical boys U-11 football competition will take the Ministry of Education’s ground on CARIFESTA Avenue by storm this weekend with round three.

The day will see twelve battles kicking off from 11:00hrs.

The opening contest will feature Batavia Primary meeting Stella Marris Primary.

At noon, Leonora Primary meets Agatash Primary on field 1 with field 2 hosting the prolific St John the Baptist Primary versus Genesis Early Childhood Education Centre.

West Ruimveldt then meet Charity Primary followed by Ann’s Grove Primary playing St Theressa’s.

Potaro then clash with Redeemer Primary with field 2 featuring Sophia verses St Aloysius Primary.

St Gabriel’s Primary also take on Georgetown International Academy and former champ’s St Pius Primary meeting Clonbrook Primary.

Smith Memorial will take on Winfer Gardens, Tucville will face St Mary’s and Marian Academy will line up against St Stephen’s Primary.

The 32 sides are placed in eight groups of four and will compete in a round robin format with the top two teams advancing to the round of 16 which is a straight knock-out leading to the quarter, semi-final and finals.

Apart from the teams to advance, the remaining team will play for placement, this the organiser says is key because of the developmental drive of the competition and the need to have players play as much as possible.

The games will be played at the Ministry of Education’s ground with awards for the top schools first to eight place which include trophies, medals, television, tablets etc.
