Fruta Conquerors U-12 Football league…Fruta Conquerors enjoy fruitful weekend; Santos/Camptown play to a draw
Last week Sunday morning, Renaissance FC trounced Fruta Conquerors ‘A’ 5-1 when the 2 days of football action in the Fruta Conquerors U-12 Football league continued at the Tucville Ground. But that was the Fruta Conquerors second tiered team. Saturday morning last, Fruta Conquerors sent out their power team and those players avenged the lost with a clinical 3-1 victory, over the very Renaissance, when the action continued at that venue.
Simeon Hackett opened the account for the winners in the 4th minute and was ably supported by Jermain Garrett (59th) and Steve Stanton (60th). Teon Van Renic saved some face for the losers with a 30th minute strike.
Also on Saturday, Camptown FC failed to emulate their 2-1 victory over the GFC one week earlier and had to settle for a draw against Santos FC after both teams only managed one goal apiece. Darron Nikes opened the account for Santos in the 40th minute but Joshua Ferreira struck the equalizer for Camptown in the 50th minute.
When the action continued yesterday morning, Fruta ‘A’ continued its winning ways with a 1-0 victory over Pele FC. Renaldo Williams breached the opposition’s goal in the 39th minute which held up to the final whistle. The final match of the day saw Western Tigers and GFC playing to a nil all stalemate.
Activities continue next weekend with two other fixtures from 09:30hrs. The organizers are appealing to the members of the business community for support to make this tournament a success even as executives of Fruta Conquerors continue in the drive of nurturing the youngsters for future representation.
The winning team will receive a special prize, while there will be incentives for the Most Valuable player, Best Goalkeeper and the Most Disciplined Player among others.
