Kaieteur Sports – The charge toward championship glory moved another step closer on Sunday as the 2025 Republic Bank Under-18 Secondary Schools Football League wrapped up its sixth round of matches at the Ministry of Education ground. And once again, Chase’s Academic Foundation made their intentions crystal clear, this title is theirs to lose.
The reigning Republic Bank and KFC Goodwill champions were in ruthless form, dismantling bottom-placed President’s College 10–0 to keep their perfect record intact. Six matches, six wins, and not a slip in sight.
Captain Bryan Wharton continued to lead from the front, bagging a first-half hat-trick and stamping his authority on the league. He opened the scoring in the ninth minute, added another in the 15th, and rounded off his treble in the 27th. Isaiah Ifill joined the scoring spree with a quickfire double in the 14th and 16th minutes, sending Chase into the break with a commanding 5–0 cushion.
President’s College never recovered, and the second half turned into another exhibition from Chase’s Academy. Wharton struck twice more to finish with an impressive five-goal haul, while Nyron Barrow (44’), Shaquan David (45’) and Darius Chester (47’) each found the net, sealing a flawless three-point haul and taking Chase to a maximum 18 points.
Later on, Charlestown Secondary notched their fourth win of their 2025 campaign, brushing aside Three Mile Secondary 3–1. Nicholas Neiuelder fired in a tidy brace in the 15th and 17th minutes, before Dilshawn Alleyne added another in the 18th to ensure a comfortable result.
West Ruimveldt Secondary kept their grip on second place with a gritty 1–0 victory over rivals South Ruimveldt Secondary. With both defenses holding firm through the first half, the match looked destined for a stalemate, until Joel Griffith broke the deadlock in the 38th minute with a sharp finish that sealed three crucial points. West Ruimveldt now sit on 15 points, and a win in next week’s finale could punch their ticket to the sixth Annual KFC Goodwill Series, where they’ll line up against some of the Caribbean’s best in the prestigious eight-team showdown.
In the final fixture of the round, Dolphin Secondary collected a straightforward three points after Abram Zuil Secondary failed to show, resulting in a walkover.
The league’s seventh and final round kicks off this weekend, with the top two teams advancing to Petra’s KFC Yearend Tournament.
This year’s competition is sponsored by Republic Bank (Guyana) Limited, with additional support from Demerara Mutual, MVP Sports, Ronoca Concrete Inc., Guyana Beverage Inc. (Busta), the Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sport, and is made possible through the Ministry of Education.
