Guinness ‘Greatest of the Streets’ Georgetown Zone continues tonight

Nov 28, 2017 Sports

The Burnham Basketball Tarmac will come alive tonight, when the Guinness ‘Greatest of the Streets’ Georgetown Zone continues with nine group matches.

According to an official release from tournament coordinators Three Peat Promotions, “The event is off to a fantastic start, large crowds have swarmed the venues and we are expecting another mammoth viewership tonight.”

The document added, “At this rate we are expecting record turnouts for the remainder of the event given the response during the second day held at the Albouystown tarmac. It has clearly justified the decision to take the event back into the communities, which is the foundation of the Championship.”

At 19:00hrs, Gaza Squad will oppose Ol Skool Ballers, while Albouystown-A battle GTI Ballers at 19:15hrs and Leopold Street tackle Bad-A-Yard from 19:30hrs.
The fourth fixture will pit Rising Stars against Back Circle at 19:45hrs, while Bent Street matches skills with Tucville from 20:00hrs and Broad Street engage Queen Street Tiger Bay at 20:15hrs.
In the final three matches, North East La Penitence tackle New Market Street at 20:30hrs, Future Stars battle Alexander Village from 20:45hrs, and Albouystown-B tackle Trap Squad from 21:00hrs.
Winner of the overall event will walk-away with $500,000 and the championship trophy along with automatic qualification for the National Playoffs.
The runner-up, third and fourth placed finishers will receive $250,000, $200,000 and $100,000 respectively. The event is also sponsored by Colours Boutique.
