Twenty four football teams from as many secondary schools are scheduled to take centre stage when the Kashif and Shanghai Entertainment and promotional group presents the 24th edition of their yearend football extravaganza and the organizers are promising a chockfull of action reminiscent of the recently concluded Digicel U-18 football extravaganza.
The K&S principals, known for their acute administrative expertise, have been working feverishly to ensure that the tournament receives the requisite support towards its resounding success.
