According to Coordinator Colin Adams a seventh team is added. “Kwakwani team for the first time will be playing in this competition. The KK team will bring extra hype to the tournament because of the ability of the players and the Linden teams will have a stronger challenge.”
Adams noted that there will be three referees per game instead of two in the previous competition. Two of the referees are Georgetown based. “Each game will have Georgetown referees because we don’t want players to have any feud with referees.”
