UDFA matches continues today at Wisburg ground
Action in the Upper Demerara Football Association (UDFA) leg of the GFF/Thunderbolt Flour Power National Under-17 League is set to continue today at the Wisburg Secondary School ground with a double header.
Milerock and Botofago will face off in the feature match at 15:00hrs with the curtain raiser bringing together High Stars and Netrockers.
In the lone match that was played on Wednesday last at the same venue, Eagles United and Amelia’s Ward Panthers battled to a 0-0 stalemate.
The other match that was scheduled between Milerock and Botofago was not played as a result of bad weather.
West Demerara FA – Damaged Den Amstel ground halts matches
Matches at the Den Amstel ground, the hub for the West Demerara Football Association (WDFA) had to be halted abruptly due to the field being damaged as a result of a vehicle being driven on it while it was soft.
Persistent rain over the past six weeks or so have rendered many fields in the various associations unplayable but WDFA President Orin Ferrier says he is optimistic that play would resume next weekend.
He said that Den Amstel is their main hub since the grounds at Wales and Goed Fortuin on the West Bank and Uitvlugt on the West Demerara are not in playable conditions.
”We are trying every avenue to have more grounds available to us so that we can have matches being played on a consistent basis,” Ferrier noted.
Essequibo Football Association
In latest play there, Queenstown and Henrietta United both got walk overs from Good Hope and Super 11, respectively.
Matches will not be played in Georgetown, East Coast and East Bank Football Associations this weekend as these associations are working on making their available facilities playable.
