GT Beer/Petra Organisation Futsal Tournament… Fans in for a real treat tonight
Part of the action on opening night of the GT Beer/Petra Organisation Futsal Tournament being played at the Cliff Anderson Sports Hall.
After witnessing an opening night of rivetting action on Tuesday, the eight teams scheduled to play tonight will no doubt be aiming to continue the trend by giving fans a real treat tonight when action in the GT Beer/Petra Organisation Futsal Tournament resumes, at the Cliff Anderson Sports Hall, starting from 19:00 hrs.
In the first encounter, West Side Showstoppers will battle Sophia and this game should set the tone for a night of fireworks, especially since it will be a battle for bragging rights between the visiting West Demerara side and the Georgetown-based unit.
Dexroy Adams, Marvin Josiah and Nathan Allicock should lead the charge for victory for Showstoppers, while the prolific Dwayne Lowe is expected to be the main worry for the Showstoppers backline.
The next game will see Bent Street collide with Beterverwagting (BV) and once again this clash is anticipated to be a humdinger.
Daniel Wilson, Shevane Seaforth and Sheldon Holder are expected to be the central characters in orchestrating a win for Bent Street, while BV’s quest for full points should centre on the performances of Delroy Deen and Quacy Price.
The next encounter is a battle between former national streetball champion Queen Street of Tiger Bay and Festival City and choosing a winner is proving to be a difficult task.
Queen Street has looked a shell of themselves since losing the services of their talisman Deon Alfred, who now ply’s his trade with Sparta Boss, but they still have some very good players so underestimating them could backfire for any opponent.
Festival City seem to be strong on paper with the likes of Stellon David, Solomon Austin, Dwayne Lawrence and Eon Alleyne in their line-up, but will it be enough firepower to stave off a team that is hungry to reclaim its prominence is the question that will be answered tonight.
In the final game of the night, West Front Road (Gold is Money) tackle Broad Street and the former should start as favourites to win.
Hubert and Michael Pedro along with Michael Oie have long been the key players in their line-up, while Broad Street usually rely on Jimmy Gravesande to direct their pursuit for victory.
At stake is $500,000 and the championship trophy for the winning team, while the second, third and fourth place finishers receive $250,000, $125,000 and $75,000 respectively.
