Milo under-20 schools’ football tourney continues this weekend
The 2020 Milo Schools’ under-18 football tournament continues today and tomorrow at the Ministry of Education (MOE) ground on Carifesta Avenue with a total of six round two group matches.
Three games each will feature on both days with South Ruimveldt Secondary opening the action today against St. Joseph
Play between Canje Secondary (defence) and South Ruimveldt last Monday.
High at 12:00hrs. Following that match will be Annandale Secondary against East Ruimveldt, while 2019 losing finalists Lodge Secondary will clash Caramel Secondary in the feature game today that kicks off at 15:30hrs.
Lodge will fancy their chances of going all the way after decent performances throughout the last season of school football, although the shadow of defending Champions Christianburg/Wismar Secondary School (CWSS) that needled them in the final last year still lingers.
Round-robin matches begin tomorrow at 12:00hrs with St. John’s College matching skills with Golden Grove Secondary followed by The Bishops’ High versus Tucville Secondary at 13:45hrs, while the feature encounter will see Queenstown Secondary being pitted against New Central High at 15:30hrs.
The eight Milo Schools’ under-18 football tournament is sponsored by Beepats and coordinated by Petra Organisation.
The competing schools are Bishops’ High, South Ruimveldt, New Central, Cummings Lodge, Carmel, Golden Grove, St. Stanislaus College, Christ Church, St. John’s College, Marian Academy, Charlestown, East Ruimveldt, St. Joseph, Canje, Christianburg/Wismar, Annandale, President’s College, Golden Grove, Ann’s Grove, Uitvlugt, Vergenoegen and Friendship.
The first prize of $400,000 will go towards a school project, while the second, third and fourth-placed sides will pocket $200,000, $100,000 and $50,000 respectively towards a school initiative.
