Activities get underway at 18:00hrs when the Houston Stars tackle Crane and goes right up until 21:30hrs when Pele opposes Plaisance. In between these two matches several others are expected to keep football buffs alive. They include Agricola against Uitvlugt, Den Amstel versus Kitty Rangers, Grove Hi Tec up against Beavers; Flamingo play Buxton, Western Tigers matching skills with YMCA and Conquerors take on BV/ Triumph.

Matches would also be played tomorrow, Tuesday Nov 10 and Monday November 16. Thereafter, the competition continues on November 17, 19, 24, 26 and December 8 and 12.

So far, thirty two teams have registered and the team winning the championships would also take home a first place prize of $300,000 and the Macorp trophy. The second place finisher also wins a trophy but a smaller cash prize of $100,000 while third and fourth place finishers receive $60,000 and $40,000, respectively.

Meanwhile, the organizers are appealing to fans as well as footballers to be on their best behaviour in order to avert a similar incident as that in the Namilco Football Festival.

Several rigid rules have been stipulated and players are requested to request copies of these rules from the organizers. Otherwise, all other rules applicable by FIFA will be implemented.
