He declared that organising football tournaments at every possible level is their contribution to the sport and the society as a whole.
Mendonca expressed thanks to the Limacol brand, GT Beer brand, Star Party Rentals, Trophy Stall, GFF, Guyana Football Referees Council, clubs, players, fans, administrators of GFC, Leonora, Victoria and the Mackenzie Sports Club ground, signaling that without their respective input the event would not have been a such a success.

At the start we had anticipated that it would be a success and we saw it happen. We look forward to continuing our support of the tournament and we will continue to support football in Guyana. Once again this tournament was an opportunity to showcase our support for sports.”
