Kaieteur Sports – Belladrum, Rosignol, Marian Academy, and Santa Rosa Primary have advanced to the semi-finals of the Petra-coordinated Pee Wee Under-11 Football Championship, set to take place next weekend at the Ministry of Education ground. Sponsored by Courts Optical, a brand of Unicomer Guyana Inc., the tournament has now narrowed to its final four after an intense round of quarter-final matches held yesterday.
The clash between Belladrum and St. John the Baptist football teams was a high tempo affair
Following three rounds of preliminary matches, the stage was set for the top eight teams to battle it out for semi-final spots. Day four of the tournament featured four exciting encounters, starting with a thrilling clash between frontrunner St. John the Baptist and Belladrum Primary. Jadon Sampson’s brilliance sealed the day as his goal in the 32th minute handed Belladrum a decisive 1-0 victory, knocking St. John the Baptist out of the competition.
In the second quarter-final, Rosignol Primary delivered a dominant performance, defeating defending champions St. Pius Primary 4-0. Abdul Kader (2), Jeremiah McDonald (1), and Timothy Rout (1) were instrumental in dismantling St. Pius’ defense. Kader opened the scoring with a perfectly executed kick from the edge of the box, while McDonald followed up with a tap-in to make it 2-0. Further strikes from Rout and Kader sealed Rosignol’s spot in the semi-finals.
The third quarter-final saw Marian Academy overcome Enterprise Primary 2-0, courtesy of Joshua Johnson’s two-goal display. Johnson wasted no time, putting Marian Academy ahead in the opening minute with a clinical finish after a quick run down the right wing. His second goal came in the 29th minute, securing Marian Academy’s place in the semi-finals.
In the final match of the day, Santa Rosa Primary clinched a 1-0 win over West Ruimveldt, thanks to a late strike by Deon Henry. Despite a strong effort from West Ruimveldt, Henry’s goal in the 23th minute proved to be the decider, sending Santa Rosa into the last four.
With the quarter-finals now concluded, Belladrum, Rosignol, Marian Academy, and Santa Rosa will gear up to compete for a place in the championship final next weekend.
