Kaieteur Sports- After an electrifying opening round that saw 66 goals, the 11th edition of the Milo/Massy Under-18 Football Championship moves into its second round this weekend at the Ministry of Education (MoE) and Queen’s College (QC) grounds.
A total of twelve matches will be contested, kicking off today with Three Mile Secondary facing Hope Secondary at the QC ground at 12:00 noon. Meanwhile, over at MoE, Bartica Secondary will go head-to-head with Carmel Secondary at 12:30 pm. This matchup is one to watch as both teams will be eager to secure their first victory of the 2025 tournament.
The action continues with two more matches at each venue. Defending champions Chase’s Academic Foundation will take on West Demerara Secondary at 14:30 hours, followed by Santa Rosa Secondary, looking for back-to-back wins, against New Central High at 16:30 hours at MoE.
Over at QC, South Ruimveldt Secondary will meet New Amsterdam Secondary in Match #17. Both teams have been in good form, and with solid defenses and skilled attacking options, this encounter promises to be a tactical battle. Wrapping up the day at 16:00 hours, Charlestown Secondary will clash with Brickdam Secondary, who are still searching for their best combination.
What’s at stake? In addition to Petra’s financial reward of $300,000 for the first-place winner, earmarked for a school project. The top eight finishers will earn a place in the upcoming ExxonMobil Secondary Football Championship. The top two teams from that competition will then have the prestigious opportunity to represent Guyana at Petra’s year-end Goodwill International School’s Series.
This tournament continues to serve as a vital platform for young players to develop their skills in a structured and competitive environment while gaining valuable exposure to enhance their football careers.
The championship is proudly sponsored by Nestlé Milo (Massy Distribution) and MVP Sports and is sanctioned by the Ministry of Education, with additional support from the Ministry of Amerindian Affairs and the National Sports Commission.
