The Mayor’s Cup Organizing Committee and the family of the late Sydroy Nedd, led by Nedd’s younger brother Senior Superintendent of Police Nigel Hoppie, organized Inter Ward/Village 7-a-side knockout football tournament in West Demerara to coincide with what would have been Nedd’s 60th birth anniversary, will conclude today.
The two-day tournament began on Sunday at the Den Amstel Community Centre ground.
Teams are battling for a first prize of $100,000, second $50,000, third $30,000 and fourth $20,000.
Quarter-final action kicks off today from 16:00hrs. Wales and Grove will lock horns in the first match before Pouderoyen face-off with Sara Lodge, Uitvlugt battle Goed Fortuin and host Den Amstel oppose Stewartville. The Semi-Finals will see the winner of the first match coming up against the winner of match three and the winner of match two playing the match-four winner for a place in the final which will be contested under lights. The losers of the Semi-finals will meet in a third place playoff just before the grand final.
Star Party Rentals and Proprietor, former national cricketer Lennox Cush, have provided the lighting for tonight’s action.
Nedd was a former President of the West Demerara Football Association (WDFA) as well as the Uitvlugt Football Club. He was also a footballer. He was Manager of Guyana Football Federation teams and Assistant coordinator of the Mayor’s Cup Organizing Committee before he passed away in September 2011.
The tournament will be conducted under the auspices of the GFF and by extension FIFA and all relevant rules will apply.
