Kaieteur Sports – The Hamilton Green Cup is back and buzzing again. Football enthusiasts can now mark their calendars for the upcoming 2024 Hamilton Green Inter-Ward (Village) Football Cup, which is scheduled to take place from October 27 to November 10 at the Georgetown Football Club (GFC) Ground.

The official announcement was made on Thursday during a launch ceremony hosted by tournament coordinator Lennox Arthur at the office of former Prime Minister and ex-Mayor, Hamilton Green.

At the launch, Arthur shared that this year’s tournament is expected to feature a blend of returning teams and new contenders. The defending champions, Stabroek Ballers Football Team, will be the team to beat, as they look to defend their title following an undefeated 2023 campaign.

Among the teams expected to participate are last year’s runner-up, Dynamic Football Team, along with Timehri Ballers, Timehri Panthers, Soesdyke Ballers, Gold is Money, Back Circle, California Square, Bent Street, Airy Hall, Den Amstel, Festival City Ballers, and others.

The tournament, endorsed by Hamilton Green, a passionate sports enthusiast who will celebrate his 90th birthday on November 9, is calling on Corporate Guyana to lend their support to the 30th edition of this highly anticipated Inter-Village Football tournament.

Football fans and supporters are encouraged to attend and witness the thrilling competition, where some of the nation’s most active teams will battle for a chance to win up to one million dollars in cash and prizes. The winning team will take home an impressive $500,000, with the second-place team earning $250,000. Third and fourth place finishers will receive $150,000 and $100,000, respectively.
