Tiger Bay teams march into semis; more quarter-final action on tomorrow
A capacity crowd that turned up to witness the start of quarter-final action in the Banks DIH-sponsored Guinness ‘Greatest of de Streets’ Futsal competition were treated to an exhibition of skill and fitness as teams battled each other to advance further into the tournament on Saturday evening, at the Company’s Car Park.

Apart from the four quarter-final encounters, fans also got the opportunity to watch four exhibition matches which saw a surprisingly high level of skills displayed by the players.
The lone disappointment of the night was the non-appearance of the Media team, but the Banks DIH and GT All Stars game was full of action and entertainment, while Clippers Barber Shop and counterparts Upper Level scored impressive wins.
In the tournament matches, those moving on included the two Tiger Bay-based teams in Queen Street and Hope Street and they were followed to the next round by Leopold Street and West Front Road.
