The action got underway in favourable conditions at #5 Ground to see Monedderlust overcoming a spirited Hopetown United Rangers team by three (3) goals to nil.
Monedderlust secured a 1 – nil position at half time, with Daniel La Rose scoring in the 36th minute to give them the early advantage.
It was not until the 70th min that Brentnol Frank extended the lead when he picked up a loose ball from a corner kick scrimmage to place a left foot shot in the back of the opponent’s net.
Goal #3, an own goal, resulting from an attempted clearance by Hopetown’s defender, Kevin Wilson, that found the back of the net in his own goal.

Over on the East side, Corriverton Links FC opposed Young Strikers FC in a match that was originally fixed for the Skeldon CDC Ground but was shifted to the Burnham Park Ground in New Amsterdam, due to unavailability of the Skeldon CDC.

A pressured Young Strikers defender opened the scoring in the 3rd min when he committed a dreadful defence error, brought on by the forceful attack of Cyrus Nicholson, to put the ball into his own net. Oshea Leitch then scored in the 25th minute to even the score for Young Strikers.
Goal # 3 scored by Ryan Grimes in the 31st minute saw it to 2 – 1 in favour of Corriverton Links at half time.
