The tournament will kick off on August 3 at 10am with the under-15 teams along the East Coast. At stake for this category is the Mark Sutton trophy and prizes.
Participating teams will be placed in two groups with the winners and runner-ups moving to the quarter finals and finals on August 4 and 5 respectively.
The competition also fields a female match as women’s football is on the verge of developing in the country. The female players will receive prizes and certificates of participations. At stake will be US$300 ($60,000.00) for the ‘Take it’ segment of the competition. This segment is for the senior male teams. All FIFA rules are in effect for the competition.
