Among the big teams set to appear are Bent Street, Back Circle, West Front Road, North East La Penitence, North Ruimveldt, Plaisance and Alexander Village.
Bent Street’s star-studded lineup is expected to include players the calibre of Colin Nelson and Konata Manning, Joshua Browne, Okanie Fraser, Anthony Abrams and William Europe, Wendell St. Hill, Dwight Peters, Sheldon Profit, Kelsey Benjamin and Sheldon Holder.
Back Circle’s quest to advance will rest on the performances of players such as Stephon McLean, Selwyn Williams, Akeemo Anthony, Sylvester Richardson, Curtez Kellman and Keron Joshua.
Tucville is another team that could spring surprises, but their chances of moving on will depend on how well Jermin Junior, Dennis Edwards, Jahal Greaves perform.
West Front Road ‘Gold is Money’ has had some disappointing results recently, but opposing teams know that they are capable of beating any team in the competition, especially if players such as Carl Tudor, Randolph Wagner, Hubert Pedro and Michael Oie play to their potential.
North East La Penitence have improved leaps and bounds and if players like Calvin Moore, Omallo Williams, Shaquille Browne and Romario Andrews live up to their reputation that the team on the other side of the court could be in fopr a rough time.
