Some of the action between Marian Academy and Georgetown International Academy
Kaieteur Sports – The Petra-organised MVP Sports Girls’ Under-11 Football Tournament delivered another day of fireworks yesterday at the Ministry of Education ground, with Waramuri Primary, Marian Academy and Santa Rosa Primary stamping their authority in rounds two and three.
West Ruimveldt opened the day with a gritty 2–0 win over Smith Memorial in match #10, courtesy of Patricia Arthur (11’) and Amya Murray (14’). But their momentum stumbled in round three, where St John the Baptist Primary held firm to grind out a 1–1 draw.
Marian Academy’s dynamic duo, Haley De Nobrega and captain Ella Fernandes, were unstoppable. They first brushed aside Agatash Primary 2–0, with De Nobrega striking early in the 8th minute and Fernandes sealing it in the 38th. But the real show came in their clash with Georgetown International Academy (GIA), a team fresh off a 2–1 win against Tucville. Fernandes unleashed a jaw-dropping six-goal masterclass in an 8–0 demolition, while Averi Simon and De Nobrega added one each.
If that wasn’t enough goal-fest drama, Waramuri Primary delivered back-to-back thrashings. First came a 10–0 rout of St Alouysius, powered by a five-goal blitz from Alina Lewis (1’, 4’, 20’, 24’, 27’). Altika Marks hammered in a hat-trick and Abrena Thomas chipped in with a double.

Waramuri then turned the heat even higher, dismantling North Georgetown Primary 11–0. Lewis struck another four (19’, 21’, 25’, 27’), while Marks unleashed seven goals (2’, 4’, 7’, 10’, 13’, 15’, 17’). North Georgetown did salvage some pride earlier with a tight win over Sophia Primary.
Santa Rosa Primary then joined the day’s list of heavy hitters, romping past Potaro Primary 7–0 in round three. Rovena Johnson was electric, netting four, with Bre Atkinson, Atika Francis and Naomi Henry each slotting home one.
Meanwhile some other results of the day, Potaro and Genesis Academy battled to a draw during their round two fixture while in Round 3; St John the Baptist held West Ruimveldt 1–1 before St Alouysius defeated Sophia Primary 2–0.
With goals flying in from every direction, the tournament powered by MVP Sports, with support from the Ministry of Amerindian Affairs, Sterling Products, Demerara Mutual, and Soft n Pretty Toiletry is shaping into a thrilling showcase of young female footballing talent.
The next round promises even more fireworks as the undefeated giants continue their charge.
