Meanwhile, the teams that concede defeat today will not be eliminated, but move on to play for final placement (5th – 8th) when the tournament resumes next weekend at the same venue.
On Thursday, the Petra Organisation hosted a simple press briefing at Spice Garden, located in Brandsville Hotel, where they gave a brief update of the tournament’s status heading into the final stretch.
Petra Co-Director, Troy Mendonca, said, “I think we have had a very exciting tournament thus far; we hardly had any lopsided-games. I think this year we have seen a serious level of maturity from most teams and I believe the teams that are in the quarterfinals deserve to be there. So we anticipate some very good match-ups this Saturday.”
Mendonca also took the time to extend his gratitude to everyone who has played their part in the successful hosting of the tournament this season.
The Unicomer-sponsored event is also supported by the Ministry of Education, Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sport, the Guyana Football Federation, Sterling Products Limited and MVP Sport.
