The traditional Mayor’s Annual Knockout Inter-Ward football fiesta 
kicks off on Friday 23rd March with an exciting double header at the Georgetown Football Club (GFC) ground from 6:30pm.
As all systems are in place for the annual tournament, the organizer is still hoping for a few more sponsors to assist in offsetting the expenses of hosting the event as the preliminary games get underway. However, Coordinator Lennox Arthur noted that a few sponsors have come forward to help and he is very grateful and is looking forward to the others to come forward.
Tiger-Bay and Wales will open the curtains in the double header for Mayor’s Inter Ward Football tournament, while West Ruimveldt and Stewartville (8:30pm) will close the curtains on opening day as they both try to draw first blood.

At stake for the top four teams are respective $500,000, $250,000, $150,000 and $100,000.
The tournament continues on Saturday 24 with three matches from 4:30 pm at the same venue. The first game will be contested between Alberttown and South Sophia; the second will see North Sophia and Charlestown battling as Campbellville and Kitty clash in the third game.
On Sunday (March 25) afternoon Alexander Village and Grove will meet at 4:30pm, West Ruimveldt Estate will play Mocha at 6:30pm, while North East La Penitence and Kuru Kururu will collide at 8:30pm.
